I am interested in any help you can give concerning the christian name 'Grenville'.

I would be most grateful if you could shed any light on the entymology, or even historical occurence of this name.#

It's probably from the surname Grenville which originated from Grainville-la-Teinturiere in Normandy.

The only thing I know is that the author P.G. Woodhouse was called Pelham Grenville.
