Aodh ( ee, ay, Irish: [iː, eː], Scottish Gaelic: [ɯː]; Old Irish: Áed) is a masculine Irish and Scottish Gaelic given name, which was traditionally anglicized as Hugh. The name means "fire" and was the name of a god in Irish mythology.
The name features in the Irish surnames Mac Aodha (lit. "son of Aodh"; anglicized as McGee/McHugh/McKee) and Ó hAodha (lit. "descendant of Aodh"; anglicized as Hayes/Hughes/O'Hea), and the Scottish surname Mac Aoidh (lit. "son of Aodh"; anglicized McKay).
The name has a number of derived forms, including:

The feminine forms Aodhnait and Aodhamair.
Aodhán (Old Irish: Aedán), anglicized as Aidan, formed by the addition of the diminutive suffix -án.
Aogán (traditionally Aodhagán), a double diminutive. This form features in the surname Mac Aodhagáin (lit. "son of Aodhagán"; anglicized as Egan and Keegan).
Maodhóg (Old Irish: Máedóc), anglicized as Mogue, derived from the pet form m'Aodhóg "my little Aodh".
