Most prominent bearers in Chinese-language reference: 托妮·莫里森 (Toni Morrison, 1931-2019, African-American novelist of 《宠儿》 Beloved, 《所罗门》 Song of Solomon, Nobel laureate 1993); 吉姆·莫里森 (Jim Morrison, 1943-71, lead singer of 大门乐队 The Doors); 罗伯特·莫里森 (Robert Morrison, 1782-1834, the first Protestant missionary to China, who produced the first Chinese-English dictionary).
usage
