goo.gl/images/eRyUIq this is who I think of. If you like it go for it, the older names are having a renaissance.

I thought you meant after the MN hacker...

...and all I can say is that once you've chosen the name Jeffrey, you're stuck with it unless you miraculously remember your username and password Sad.

Awesome name, I loved the Pixies. One of the reasons I fell for my DP, Jeff.

Only after a relative, as a middle name.

Lovely Classic name and totally underused at the moment. I prefer it with a G though.

I was going to be Geoffrey/Jeffrey (never known which spelling), if I'd been a boy, I absolutely hate it and people have always laughed when it's been brought up. Incidentally my female name is just as awful.
