The name could have come from either the English or the Irish. The English Trainor I know is from the 7th century Olde English 'trayne' which meant in those says to trap or snare, this is where we get the modern day hunter. In Ireland, it may have come from the pre 10th century Gaelic Mac Threinfhir, meaning " the son of the champion".

The original Gaelic form of the name Trainor is Mac Treinfir, from the words trean, meaning strong and fear meaning man. Irish names tend to vary widely in their spelling and overall form.
