Genealogy / Please help me trace my surname origin - Gurklis [9]

Please help me fing my surname's origin. My grandfather was born in Poland and moved to the uk after the war. There are many families in the usa with the surname GURKLIS but none in the uk. Can anyone shed any light on this as I am told it is Polish but it certainly does not sound like it, I wanted to trace my family tree but is proving very difficult.

many thanks
