About Moody
Moody would work great as the name of Snow White's lost eighth dwarf friend, but we can't recommend it as a first name IRL. It was the last name of Harry Potter character Mad-Eye Moody, played by Brenden Gleason in the movies; his given name was Alastor. The bond credit rating company Moody's is likewise named for the surname of its founder, John Moody.
Pronounced MOO-dee.
As of October 2026, Moody ranked #13517 in US births in 2023 SSA, peaked at #692 in 1893.
