Well, it's a province in Ireland. Or it's the name of The Munsters, a show about a family of monsters. Munster is their surname.

"The Munsters" - Similar to the " Addams Family" show.

I think the asker might have also heard it this way from an American saying "monster".

The context was a conversation about Monster group, my colleage said "it should be called Munster group". I didn't comprehend the reference.

Monster group is a group in mathematic group theory.
