Morry is in Origin.

Rooted in Latin, Morry is a diminutive of Maurice and Morris, names that stem from Mauricius, based on Maurus, meaning "Moorish; dark-skinned." Through Norman French, Maurice entered medieval England and remained popular thanks to the cult of Saint Maurice; the English surname-turned-given-name Morris spread in the early modern era. Morry emerged as an affectionate short form in English-speaking countries, especially North America, and occasionally appears as an independent given name from the late 19th century onward.

Variants and related forms include Morrie, Maury, and the formal Maurice and Morris. In Jewish communities, Morry is also used informally for Mordechai, a biblical name whose likely Old Persian root connects to "Marduk" (often glossed as "warrior/servant of Marduk"). Pronounced MOR-ee, the name carries a friendly, mid-century charm while retaining classical depth through its Latin and, in some contexts, Hebrew–Persian associations.
