Why can’t I find much on this name? I found it in one of my name books and definitely developed a crush on it. I prefer the Murdoch spelling.
I prefer Murdoch as well.
All it says to me is [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] Murdoch which is definitely an association I’d avoid. I’d also hesitate to use a Murd- name as it reminds me of the word murder, but that’s probably a personal thing as I know lots of people dislike [name_f]Scarlet[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] for that reason and they’re quite usable.
Honestly I don’t see this as any different than naming your child Maidoff or something. Unless it’s a family name it just seems odd.
It’s very under used. I would love to see a little Murdoch running around.
I too associate it with [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] Murdoch, not the best association but still a very usable name. I much prefer the Murdoch spelling.
Thanks for all the feedback! I have no idea who [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] Murdoch is, but I am assuming he’s generally not a good perso? Lol If I were going to use it, it would probably be a quirky middle.
I really like it, though I associate it more with [name_m]Matt[/name_m] [name_m]Murdock[/name_m], Daredevil, than anything else. I would only use it as a middle name, but I still like it.
It reminds me of Murdoch Mysteries and the fictional character [name_m]William[/name_m] Murdoch.
