Whelan The names Whelan and Phelan in Ireland both derive from the O'Faolain Septs that were principally located in Counties Waterford and Kilkenny. Together these names rank among the fifty most frequently found names in the country and it is in the ancestral homeland Counties that the majority of descendants can still be found.
