According to Wikipedia:

"Jason Gillespie is a descendant on his father's side of the Kamilaroi
people of Indigenous Australians, and is the first acknowledged
Aboriginal male to become a Test cricketer. His mother has Greek
heritage and Jason is the eldest of the three children."

Which doesn't clear up the surname "Gillespie". I imagine that at some
point a few generations back, Australian bureaucrats probably decided
that all of the aboriginal people must have a surname and, whether by
the person's choice or at the whim of one of those bureaucrats, his
ancestor acquired the name "Gillespie".

It's a very common name around here. I think it means servant of a
priest or bishop or something.
It's been claimed that McAnespie means son of the bishop but more
likely means son of the servant of the bishop.
