Reply to: McGriff by SAM
My Irish surname book (Irish Surnames {SLOINNTE NA h-ÉREANN} by Seán de Bhulbh who I translate as Sean Butler) does not show any entry for McGriff ...the book is based on all currently existing (1997) names in Irish phone books.

As a result, I'd suspect as Jim Young says that its a transliteration of another name ...
