Clardy

Clardy is a surname of likely English, Irish, or French origin. It is believed to be a variant of surnames such as Clary or Clardé, possibly derived from the Old French word clarté, meaning "brightness" or "clarity." Alternatively, it may have developed as an Anglicized form of an Irish surname derived from Ó Cléirigh (O’Cleary), meaning "descendant of the cleric" or "scholar."
