The surname Grimshaw has its origins in England and is of Anglo-Saxon origin. The name is derived from the Old English words "grima," meaning mask or helmet, and "sceaga," meaning thicket or copse. It was originally used as a topographical surname for someone who lived near a wooded area or thicket, or as a nickname for someone who wore a mask or helmet.

The Grimshaw surname became associated with Ireland during the Plantation of Ulster in the 17th century. Many English settlers, including individuals with the surname Grimshaw, were granted land in Northern Ireland during this time. These settlers played a significant role in the colonization and establishment of English influence in the region.

Over time, some Grimshaw families in Ireland became assimilated into the local Irish culture while others maintained their English heritage. Consequently, the surname Grimshaw is now found among both Protestant and Catholic Irish communities. The distribution of the name is primarily concentrated in the counties of Antrim, Down, and Londonderry, reflecting the historical settlement patterns of the English planters.

Today, many individuals of Irish descent with the surname Grimshaw can be found across the globe, particularly in countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, where Irish immigrants settled in large numbers. The name Grimshaw continues to carry the history and heritage of its origins in both England and Ireland.
