Gregory is a common masculine first name and family name.
The associations with a shepherd who diligently guides his flock is part of the reason that the name has been popular with monks, priests and popes.
Although the name was uncommon in the early 20th century, after the popularity of the actor Gregory Peck it became one of the ten most common male name in the 1950s and has remained popular since.
