Gross is a really common last name where I'm originally from, as is Queer. A lot of people with the latter change it to "Quinn" if they move out of the area.

Like the Hell family, these names are probably of European origin (the 2 examples I gave, I would guess German) and don't have the same meaning in their original language.
