It's his name. You can see in the school flash back, when he's still part of civilised society, that his nameplate says Grinch.

But interestingly the book of Who says the term "Grinchy" should apply when Christmas spirit is in short supply.

And we're given the impression the book of who is an old foundational text. So it would appear the old ladies named him after the term Grinchy. So they're really just assholes.

So the ladies just named him the equivalent or Boaty McBoatface, but for his attitude. Lol. Grand-Karens.
