| Generations of Murray-Priors drew on Andrew M-P's august in-laws when choosing names for their children. The second name of TLM-P, Andrew M-P's great-grandson, was Lodge while his uncle was [[Lodge Morres M-P.]] Many of TLM-P's children appear to be named after this family. Catherine and Elizabeth were popular names and also the second names of TLM-P’s step-sister Louisa; Lodge and Morres could be named after his uncle; but there appears no reason other than identification with the Morres family when three of TLM-P's sons were named Hervey, Redmond and (as a second name for Thomas) de Montmorenci (a variation of Montmorency). Louisa, TLM-P's step-sister, urged that de Montmorenci be the second name for another of his sons: this suggestion was vetoed by his second wife Nora as being 'too pretentious for the colonies".((Nora to Rosa, 20 February 1882))\\ | Generations of Murray-Priors drew on Andrew M-P's august in-laws when choosing names for their children.

| TLM-P and Louisa M-P were not the only M-Ps to identify with the de Montmorencys - Swire Murray-Prior was from another branch of the family and his death notice, //Sydney Morning Herald//, 22 December 1993, p.35, gives his second name as 'de Montmorency'.((clipping courtesy Tom A. M-P.)) Swire was born in 1911 to Bertram A. and Ida L. M-P.((BDM)) As well, the British Army List for January-March 1866 refers to a Herbert de M. M-P who was a Cornet in the 1st (Kings) Dragoon Guards; the Army List for May 1869 shows that he sold out of the army when an Ensign with the rank of Lieutenant. In 1869, the army lists both Lieutenant Adrian de Montmorency Prior (in the Royal Artillery) and Brevet Colonel J. de M. M. Prior, late of the Dragoons.((Note that this information is from old notes of mine from the Public Record Office at Kew (England) and needs checking.)) \\ | TLM-P and Louisa M-P were not the only M-Ps to identify with the de Montmorencys - Swire Murray-Prior was from another branch of the family and his death notice, //Sydney Morning Herald//, 22 December 1993, p.35, gives his second name as 'de Montmorency'.((clipping courtesy Tom A.
