More difficult than i originally thought.
a hippogriff has the head of an eagle body of a horse and wings
a griffin has the head of an eagle, a body of a lion and wings.
a lammasu sounds quite close but thats a human headed winged horse or lion type mythical creature.
I've seen a couple of pictures of something called a leogriff, but i think that particular creature is an invented mythical creature. Or I'd say you could call it a pseudo-griffon or you could just make up your own name
