Levingston

Levingston is a family name originating in Scotland as a habitational name derived from Livingston in Lothian which was originally named in Middle English Levingston.

In Ireland (and in some cases in the Highlands of Scotland), the name was adopted by those there exiled royals of Ulaidh (province) or L. Ultonia bearing the Gaelic surnames Ó Duinnshléibhe and Mac Duinnshléibhe (anglicized Dunleavy) and, also, in Ireland and Scotland, later, known as the Mac an Ultaigh (var. Ulaidh) (anglicized MacNulty). Levingston may refer to:
