In the Polish language, duchowny means 'clergyman'. Duchovny's father was from a Russian and Polish-Jewish family and dropped the h in his last name to avoid the sort of mispronunciations he encountered while serving in the Army. Duchovny's mother is a Scottish Presbyterian immigrant from Aberdeen, Scotland. He is the son of Amram "Ami" Ducovny (1927–2003), a writer and publicist who worked for the American Jewish Committee, and his wife Margaret "Meg" ( née Miller), a school administrator and teacher.
