ArchivesMoore
The surname Moore is derrived from the surname Muir, which was one of the old Scottish Royal families surnames. Their tartan is a rich purple and dark jade colour. according to history all family members was murder. My moms maiden name is Moore so I did some research. For some reason people think that the Moore race was black in colour, I just want to rectify this. I am married to a Berber man (who is the so called Moore people). Maybe they are referring to the black haired majority.He is as white as any other white person I know. They are the oldest surviving civilazation, it dates back up to 10 000 years. (The Berber/Moore and the old Romans look a lot alike.)

I take it that the reference to Muir as a "Royal Family" alludes to Elizabeth Muir of Rowallan's marriage to Robert II. This gives the Muirs a royal connection but does not make them a royal family.
Thee may be a few Moores in Northern Ireland whose ancestors were Scottish Muirs but, otherwise the name is English and, in my opinion, mainly locative. In Ireland it can be of English origin or an Englishing of the Irish Ó Mordha; occasionally perhaps an adaption of Muir.
