Släkthistoria för Piff
Piff Vad efternamn betyder
perhaps from an unrecorded Middle English personal name *Piff(e) from Old English Pēof(a) (etymology unknown). The lack of any Middle English forms of the personal name or the surname makes this an uncertain explanation but compare Adam Pyffing 1327 in Subsidy Rolls (Rockhampton Gloucs) whose name could be a pet form of Piffe + the hypocoristic suffix -ing.
