Discovered 1903 Jan. 18 by M. F. Wolf at Heidelberg.
Named after a character in the novel Auch Einer (1879) by the German writer Friedrich Theodor Vischer (1807–1887). Urhixidur is housekeeper, nurse and female companion of the priest Angus. He, a progressive, opposes her conservative views. She eventually dominates him since he cannot live without her. (H 54; R. Bremer)
