From Ancient Greek μωρός (mōrós, “slow, dull”).

   • 38 CE – 104 CE, Martial, Epigrams 6.39.15–21:

     […] Hunc vērō acūtō capite et auribus longīs,
     quae sīc moventur ut solent asellōrum,
     quis mōriōnis fīlium negat Cyrtae?
     Duae sorōrēs, illa nigra et haec rūfa,
     Crotī choraulae vīlicīque sunt Carpī.
     Iam Niobidārum grex tibī foret plēnus
     sī spadŏ Corēsus Dindymusque nōn esset.

     This one though with the pointed head and long ears,
     which so move, like those of asses often do,
     who denies that he is the son of Cyrta the monster?
     Two sisters, that one swarthy and this one red-haired,
     are Chrotus' the flute-player' and Carpus' the steward's.
     Now the swarm of children of Niobe were full
     if Coresus and Dindymus weren't eunuchs.

Third-declension noun.

'De-deponentization' of the Classical morior. Attested from the fourth century CE.[1]

moriō (present infinitive morīre, perfect active morīvī or moriī, supine mortum); fourth conjugation

Many of the descendants reflect a change in verb class to *morĕre.
