Rafferty Origin and Meaning
The name Rafferty is a boy's name of Irish origin meaning "floodtide, abundance, prosperity".
Jaunty and raffish, Rafferty is one of the most engaging of the Irish surnames, used by Jude Law and Sadie Frost for their son. Fortunately, it doesn't still go by its original form: O'Raighbheartaigh.
