As far as I know Ganpre is a surname in France, and a rare one at that. It is probably a derivation and a contraction of "grand pré" which means "a large field", the "r" in grand having progressively been swallowed in local dialect. It does not exist as an ordinary word.
There is a place of that name in Quebec, and I am given to understand it is a character in Harry Potter.

Is this how you think it is pronouced or have you seen it in writing? If you have heard it, it could mean Grand Prix or some other word such as grand-père (grandfather).
