McCollum - Irish Mccallum?
I love the Songs Of Praise presenter Claire McCollum and have read that she is Irish and so is her surname the Irish form of McCallum which I saw when looking for her last name that wasn't there?

The variants are Mac Callum, Mac Callam, Mac Calliom, Mac Collum, Mac Collam and Mac Collom (note the Mac) and they come from Irish Mac Coluim, from colm 'dove'.
