爱尔兰人(Irish: Muintir na hÉireann or na hÉireannaigh; Ulster-Scots: Airisch or Airish fowk)是欧洲西北部的爱尔兰岛的一个种族。爱尔兰岛有人居住的历史达9000年(根据考古学研究,详见史前爱尔兰)。
关于爱尔兰人的祖先,传说中他们是 Nemedians族、佛摩尔族、伯克族、 Tuatha Dé Danann族和米利都人中一族的后人。一本爱尔兰神学书Lebor Gabála Érenn说Tuatha Dé Dananns是Scythian 人的后代。

- The 2006 Australian Census (页面存档备份,存于) reports 1.9 million people of Irish ancestry in the 2001 Census. Up to two ancestries could be chosen. Recent increases in the number who identify as Australian suggest that this number is an underestimate of the true number with Irish ancestry. With that being said, the number claiming Irish ancestry from the previous census actually more than doubled. One reason, an improved image of what it means to be Irish according to the census experts, making Australians more proud to state their Irish ancestry. Also the Australian Embassy in Dublin states that up to 30 percent of Australians have some degree of Irish ancestry. (页面存档备份,存于).
