Pronunciation of Mckeon
Its not Mc-Q-en at all!!....."McEwen" is a totally different surname that comes from Scotland. McKeon or McKeown is Irish and is pronounced MacYone!!....its literally Mac-Kee-own..if you say that quickly it comes out as McYone, the people to ask are the Irish,who know how to pronounce their own surnames!!!

Pronunciation of Mckeon
I’m a McKeown from Ireland. Same name. Americans have a hard time with the pronunciation. In Ireland it is pronounced MacKyone. I usually ask Americans
to say Mak-yone or Makee-One( like “own”)
Pronunciation of Mckeon in Cheshire,England
my name is pronounced MC-Key-un.
my line of this family name is of Scottish decent.
i don’t know why everyone just assumes it’s Irish. my grandad still has our clans original tartan. from our understanding it’s originally a Scottish name but part of the clan migrated to ireland and now has long roots there. then as you all probably know from ireland the name went to all different parts of the world.

Pronunciation of Mckeon
It's most definitely NOT Mc-Q-In. I live in a town with another McKeon family, not related (still a possibility of them being distant, distant relatives), and they pronounce it as Mick-Koon. My family pronounces it Mick-Kee-un (the "un" is softly pronounced). I literally had aunts and uncles grilling me with the proper pronunciation since a young age. It's an Irish thing.

McKeon is pronounced Mih-kyoon. It’s my last name, so I would think I have the right pronunciation.
