The Móric Family Name

Spellings drift, and Móric is where Moritz drifted for some families.

What is the meaning of Móric?

Name scholars give the meaning as “A descendant of Moritz, from Latin Mauritius”.

How is Móric related to Moritz?

Móric is listed among the recognised spellings of Moritz. Before spelling was standardised, one family could appear under several forms. The same family of names includes Moriz, Moeritz and Morritz.

Does every Móric family have a crest?

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Móric, so the heraldry linked to Moritz is a starting point, not an automatic right.
