I forgot to mention that Timothy Murphy spelled my last name wrong in that thread I linked to before. He added the "e" which my grandfather removed on his coming over from Germany, or so I've been told, in the hope that it would make the name easier to pronounce. The form of the name with an "e" stuck in the middle is much more common, but still not common.
The shortened version of the name is pretty rare. And so I didn't make any fuss over the spelling which Mr. Murphy used.
Rhymes with "hourly".
