There were 2 brothers, Kadir Merican and Noordin Merican, who were the grandsons of Dato Kramat in Penang. Descendants of the elder brother kept the Merican suffix in their names. Likewise, descendants of the younger brother kept the Noordin Merican suffix in their names.

There was a classmate named Khalid Merican in my Form 6 class at the Methodist Boys' School (MBS) in Penang in 1976.
MBS was formerly the Anglo-Chinese School (ACS) in Penang, but was at different locations before it was re-located to Jalan Ayer Itam.

Mak had friends and relatives who had the Merican suffix in their names. Among her relatives was a man by the call name Ayah Wan Merican Nordin (deceased). He knew Mak, but I never knew him except in Facebook, and never met him.
