Uncertain. Perhaps from Proto-West Germanic *grainōn, from Proto-Germanic *grainōną (“to howl; weep”), from Proto-Germanic *grīnaną (“to whine; howl; whimper”), whence also English groan. Alternatively from Proto-West Germanic *grīnan (“to snarl; to grin”) from the same source, whence modern greina (“to cry, to whine”) and German greinen (“to cry, to whine”).
