Kiff Family History
Kiff Name Meaning
German: topographic name from Westphalian dialect Kiff ‘outhouse tied cottage or shack’. English (Hertfordshire and Middlesex): perhaps a variant of Kift which may be from an unrecorded Middle English kift identical with 19th-century dialectal kift ‘clumsy awkward’ perhaps for a left handed person.
