English
English : topographic name for someone who lived near a stone cross set up by the roadside or in a marketplace, from Old Norse kross (via Gaelic from Latin crux, genitive crucis), which in Middle English quickly and comprehensively displaced the Old English form crūc (see Crouch). In a few cases the surname may have been given originally to someone who lived by a crossroads, but this sense of the word seems to have been a comparatively late development. In other cases, the surname (and its European cognates) may have denoted someone who carried the cross in processions of the Christian Church, but in English at least the usual word for this sense was Crozier.Irish : reduced form of McCrossen.In North America this name has absorbed examples of cognate names from other languages, such as French Lacroix.

Indian (Gujarat and Bombay city)
Indian (Gujarat and Bombay city) : Hindu (Vania) and Parsi name from Gujarati sÉ™raf ‘banker’, ‘money-changer’, from Arabic Ì£sarrÄf.

Shroff is used as a vocabulary word in Indian English to denote a banker or money changer.English : although this is for the most part an Indian name (see 1 above), it was already well established in England in the 19th century (see below) and may also be of English origin.
