Murry Origin and Meaning

The name Murry is a boy's name.

Murry is a masculine name with Celtic and Scottish roots, historically serving as a variant of Murray. Derived from the place name Moray in Scotland, it ultimately stems from the Gaelic 'Muiredach' meaning 'lord' or 'sea lord.' Less commonly spelled with the 'u' variant than the more traditional Murray, Murry has a warm, approachable quality with its soft sounds. The name saw modest popularity in the early 20th century in America but remains relatively uncommon today. Murry carries associations with Scottish heritage and conveys a sense of strength and dignity while maintaining a friendly, accessible character that works well across different age groups.
