The surname Ibarrondo originates from the Basque region of northern Spain and southwestern France. It likely derives from the Basque words "ibar" meaning valley and "ondo" meaning bottom or base, suggesting the name refers to someone who lived at the bottom of a valley.

The earliest known record of the name Ibarrondo dates back to the 16th century in the village of Ibarrangelua, located in the Basque province of Biscay. The village name itself means "new valley" in Basque. Variations of the spelling include Ibarrondo, Ybarrondo, and Ibarrondoa.

In the 17th century, a notable figure with this surname was Juan de Ibarrondo, a Basque merchant and ship owner who played a role in the transatlantic trade between Spain and the Americas. Records indicate he was born in Bilbao around 1620.

During the 19th century, the Ibarrondo surname spread beyond the Basque region as families migrated to other parts of Spain and abroad. In 1842, José María Ibarrondo, a Basque engineer, was involved in the construction of the first railway line in Spain, connecting Barcelona and Mataró.
