Dia Dhuit!
DOCKENDORF Hmmm?! Gaelic Translation: Duga Sráidbhaile? (DUG-A SRAWD-VIL-EE) Gaelic Transliteration: Doicéandórbh? OK, so that was a stretch.
MOORE When you study Celtic names, the name Moore crops up as a headache every so often! It can belong to any group, including the English. See the earlier post for a translation. If it's the Irish Moore, than it's actually Ó Mórdha (pronounced OH MORE-yA) meaning descended from the great one.
MOONEY A good Connacht Irish name: Ó Maonaigh (pronouced OH MAIN-EE) meaning descended from Maonach = wealthy.
HODDER ? Gaelic Transliteration: Hoidéir.
MOFFAT A topographical surname. Original Scottish Gaelic: Magh Fada (pronounced MY FAD-A) meaning long plain.
