From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
This surname is derived from a nickname. 'the felon,' a treacherous person; Middle English felun, OS. felon.
Henry de Felun, Huntingdonshire, 1273. Hundred Rolls.
This surname seems to have lasted till the close of the 17th century in England, and still exists in America.
1671. Baptised — Joseph, son of Joseph and Tabytha Fellon: St. James, Clerkenwell.
FELON: A U.S. name. Most probably a corruption of Fallon, which is also found in the States. Ferguson connects Fallon with Fail, and thinks the latter may be from Old Norse feila, pudere; and the former from feilinn, pudibundus. Fallon is rather from the Irish name O'Fallon, said to be a corruption of O'Phelan; from Faolan, whose son Mothea was at Clontarf in 1014. A district in Roscommon was known as O'Fallon's country. O'Connellan gives the O'Faolains or O'Felans, or Whelans, among the Irish chiefs and clans of Desies.
