Scottish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Mac Suibhne, ‘son of Suibhne’, a Gaelic name meaning ‘pleasant, affable’, see McQueen 1 and Irish McSweeney .

Scottish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Mac Suain based on Old Norse sveinn ‘boy, servant’, which was also used as a personal name. This is given as the origin of the McQueen family of Skye (see also McSwain and Whan ) although the two similar personal names Suibhne and Sveinn, Gaelic and Scandinavian, have influenced each other more widely in Scotland.
