Moore Family Crest Ring
For some Moore families, the name evokes a place on the landscape; for others, it comes through a different language entirely. A Moore family crest ring can honor your particular story with artwork you select.
Dunham Jewelry lets you choose artwork from its available collection or upload your own family crest or coat of arms. Then select a ring style and customize your Moore ring.
The Several Origins of Moore
One English route to Moore is topographic: Middle English more referred to a moor, marsh, or fen. The name could describe someone who lived near such a place or came from a settlement named for one.
Moore also has distinct roots. The Dictionary of American Family Names records an Irish form of Gaelic Ó Mórdha, Scottish Moore as a variant of Muir, and a Welsh nickname from mawr, meaning “big” or “great.” These meanings offer research leads, not a way to identify one Moore family’s origin without records.

Why Moore Does Not Point to One Crest
Custom family crest rings can carry artwork chosen for personal meaning; a documented historical claim calls for more research.
Several independent surname origins make it especially important to separate a Moore design you like from arms demonstrably connected to your ancestors. Historical coats of arms follow particular eligible lines. Names alone do not establish that connection. The College of Arms describes how a right to arms is traced.
