Murgatroyd is a surname among the English nobility, originating in Yorkshire. Its etymology, according to one source, is as follows: in 1371, a constable was appointed for the district of Warley in Yorkshire. He adopted the name of Johanus de Morgateroyde, or literally: Johanus of Moor Gate Royde or 'the district leading to the moor'. Another source says the place name means Margaret's road. In Old Norse, royd means "clearing". Although Moorgate in London was a gate with the road to the moor passing through, in Yorkshire, gate means "street", so Moor Gate Royd would be 'a clearing in the forest on the road to the moor'.
