Hi - not sure im posting in the right place
i joined the forum some time ago and then forgot about it and thought i would reconnect!

My husband wasn't born MacMhuirich.... he adpoted the name and legally changed it a few years back. his grandmothers maiden name is Murray and he did some research and found it originated from MacMhuirich He then legally changed his name to MacMhuirich - i have married him and now it is my name

I did recently meet a gentleman from scotland and wrote my name down so he could pronounce it for me and he said it as i would pronounce it
Mac Meer ick however we so often are called Mac Mur itch

from what i have read (as uncommon as CH is traditionally) we are pronouncin it correctly and it would be a hard CK sound not soft CH

thoughts ...!?
