No, I like it. I was merely musing mindlessly on what it might mean. I had never tried to pronounce it, and hence, I could not spell it. Once I started looking at how it was spelled, the musings started.
It looked kind of French, so I played around with Google Translate, but nothing turned up. What's cool, though, is even if Google cannot translate it, it will still try to pronounce it. It was cool listening to the English vs French pronunciations.
I've decided that it is pronounced "Grey Oxes", but Gra feels as if it means something Grand.
Well met, Gra!
As a weekend game programmer, I've worked on a few 'random name generators', and this one looks like it uses grapheme clusters. Its not a true random letter generator, which would give phoenetically impossible combinations like jkxxlt.
A 'grapheme cluster' generator chooses from the significant beginning combinations (a grapheme), such as dr, gr, str, bl, br, (etc), then a vowel or vowel pairing (oa, oo, au), then another consonant or closing grapheme (rt, nd, st), to create a word like: Blort
Blort (starting grapheme BL - vowel O - closing grapheme RT) or in your case a starting grapheme GR and a vowel A and a blank closing grapheme.
This is all just MY opinion. Since I'm not the programmer for this site I can't be certain, but it looks this way to me.

The whole idea of me sharing that link was so the off topic conversations on name meanings and name generation could continue in the correct Thread as this Thread is for questions related to KNtoran's D&D Campaign.
The generator I believe Scriptwizard was originally referring to is the one where characters are created and not the one I linked to.

Very creative but I tend to like to come up with my own from either a historical perspective or just the general mood I want my character to be in.
I needed a name for a story I'm developing so I checked my username to see if it would give me something unique and got:
