Initially GREP was an abbreviation, short for "Get REPresentation".
I learned about the meaning of GREP abbreviation from this implementation:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/academic/computer-science/history/pdp-11/rsx/decus/rsx88b/373230/

Wikipedia says its name comes from the ed command g/re/p (globally search for a regular _expression_ and print matching lines).
