Comment
The surname 'Moore' is English but it is most common in Ireland,The British Isles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.27.230.242 (talk) 19:13, 14 October 2009 (UTC) It's probably only a surname in Ireland because of the hundreds of thousands of English colonists that settled in Ireland over a span of 800 years109.154.232.109 (talk) 18:27, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

and what about anglicizing of Mohr?
OK, "Mohr" is of German origin, but is it possible that some people (being illiterate and having to give their name to, say a census taker or a recorder of deeds) ended up having Mohr anglicized to Moore? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 17:02, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
