McGee
Honestum Praetulit Utili
"He has preferred honesty to advantage" McGee's family Motto
Mcgee Meaning: the son of Aodh (fire).
"We have two parts, both equally important, in your name. I'm going to start with your family name. "
"Contrary to popular belief, McGee and its variations are not a Scottish name, but Irish. These M'Ghies migrated to Scotland and settled there for over a thousand years, but some branches of the family name finally ended when a descendancy to female lines ended their reign."
"In the seventeenth century the migration movement was the other way around, with Scots and English moving into Ireland, specifically in an area named Ulster, in the north of the island. The McGees settled in Ireland until the start of the American Revolution that motivated these families to move to the new world. This period, and the great potato famine in the nineteenth century are the roots of many McGees that settled here in America."
"The name McGee means the son of Aodh, which means fire in old Gaelic. They remained prominent throughout Irish history, as they were very vocal in their discontent with tyranny against less fortunate people or against the abuses of the church."
"McGees are also the central point of one of the bloodiest episodes of conflict between Protestants and Catholics, which happened on Island McGee. The historical data is a little sketchy, but they say that the Protestant garrison brutally killed and slaughtered over 50 Catholic families, named McGee, in retaliation for the killing of their own wives and children after an amnesty. Death was paid with death, and the name McGee was eradicated from the island. Again, most of the story is speculation, as there is no written record of it anywhere."
"Their family motto in Latin is Honestum Praetulit Utili, which means 'He has preferred honesty to advantage'. Many of the McGees of old not only had this motto, but they lived it every single day of their lives. They were writers, poets, clergyman and women, statesman who dedicated their lives to fight tyranny and corruption."
She stops, and keeps looking McGee in the eye. He is mesmerized by the story she is telling, she would make a good writer, he thinks. At that moment, it was as if they were alone in the bullpen, and they simply forgot about the other agents observing them.
"The McGees that came to America became writers, politicians, journalists, even," she pointed to McGee before her, "federal agents," they smile at each other, "McGee is a worthy name, and it shouldn't be mocked as it's not only a label given to you, it is also a metaphor of who you are."
She leans over, and says softly, "don't ever let anyone else mock it again."
She takes a step back, looks around at the other agents, and smiles, "however, my favorite is still Timothy."
