Murphy sounds so harsh as a given name. I don't like it even on a boy and I do like masculine names! It's just too rough and coarse. It would be okay on a cat or a dog, though.
Murphy (played by Norman Reedus) was the twin brother of Connor MacManus (played by Sean Patrick Flanery) in the wonderful cult hit "Boondock Saints".

I hate this name for both sexes. I can't really imagine it on a guy, and on a woman, it sounds very ugly. It actually sounds like the name of a shabby middle-aged woman with a hideous 80s-like hairstyle with hair that looks electrified and ugly, loose-fitting clothes.
