The two lead characters - Sean and Mary Kate - were named after director John Ford's first name (in Irish) and the two ladies John Wayne loved the most - Mary (his wife) and Kate (Katharine Hepburn).
According to John Ford, Republic Pictures head Herbert J. Yates disliked the title and wanted the film renamed "The Prizefighter and the Colleen". Ford disagreed as he was worried the title would give the plot away. Luckily, he prevailed.
Maureen O'Hara broke a bone in her hand while slapping John Wayne during the scene when they first kiss. Since the movie wasn't being filmed in sequential order, she couldn't wear a cast to fix the fracture.
