The surname Murdoch is of Scottish and Irish origin, and it derives from the Gaelic names Muireach or Murchadh. The name is composed of two elements: “muir” meaning “sea” and “cath” meaning “battle” or “warrior.” Thus, the name can be interpreted as "sea warrior" or "mariner." In Scotland the name is traditionally associated with the Highlands and the Hebrides, regions where Gaelic influence was strong. It is also linked to the ancient clan MacMurdoch, which was a branch of the larger Clan Donald. In Ireland Murdoch can be an anglicized form of the Gaelic name Muireadhach, which is derived from Muireadhach, a personal name meaning “lord” or “master.”
