Goff is a surname with several distinct origins, mainly Germanic, Celtic, Jewish, and French. It is the 946th most common family name in the United States.[1] When the surname originates from England it is derived from an occupational name from German, Welsh, Cornish and Breton. The German Goff means a godly person, a strong warrior, or a priest. The Welsh gof and the Breton goff means "smith" (cognate with Irish gobha). The English-originating surname is common in East Anglia, where it is of Breton origin. The Welsh name is a variant of the surname Gough, and is derived from a nickname for someone with red hair. The native Irish name is derived from a patronymic form of the Gaelic personal name Eochaidh/Eachaidh, which means "horseman".[2][3]
