You would reference the father's name, not the mothers.
  Ireland had more rights for women under Brehon law when compared to 
most any other country in that timeframe, but the patriach was still 
remembered in the name. If the father was Fionn, you, being a lady, 
would be Ua Fionn (O' Finn).
Otherwise, give yourself a qualifier that is self-descriptive.
