Murry

US Popularity Rank: 25478

Origin: Gaelic

Meaning: Lord and master

Murry is a masculine name of Gaelic origin derived from Murray and, therefore, naturally linked to Irish and Scottish history. Murray is an anglicized version of an old surname meaning "descendant of Ó Muireadhaigh" but now shares a meaning with Murry of "lord and master." The name crossed the seas, and in 1950, the true lord and master was born: Bill Murray. From Caddyshack, Scrooged, and Ghostbusters to Groundhog Day, Kingpin, and Zombieland, Bill has remained at the top of the marquee for half a century. He has delighted cinemagoers worldwide with his quirky humor and lovely, comical face, continuing to do so well into his 70s. Baby Murry will surely be honored to be associated with such greatness.
