    Actually it does bother me, and I have considered having it legally changed to "Geoffrey". But in the Jewish tradition, you are given names based on deceased relatives. My father's father Jack/Jake/Yaacob is the basis for my first name Jeffrey (note the same first letter)/Yaacob. Curiously I could not get the anglicanization of Jacob or Jake or Jack - the latter name being particularly appropriate for this website!

    But bet they get your' spelling right more often than mine.

    woner which is the most used in the world Jeffrey or Geoffrey. I suspect J.

    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

          G'Day GUT,

          The real killer is that the name spelling of "Jeffrey" seems to date back to the last name in England - as in the 17th Century "jurist" and Lord Chancellor.

          It figures. I share the same birthday as Hitler, and my first name is the same as the judge of the "Bloody Assize" minus the final "s".

            The chap in Mexico is one of the heads of a large drug cartel, and extremely ruthless and dangerous. This is the second time he's escaped encarceration in the last three decades. Hopefully he will be shot and killed next time.

                    SHE wants to know what the Escape Committee is.

                    How do you explain it to a reasonably sane person?

                      I could always get Jeffery to explain it to her

                              She knows about lion supporting Yanks, in fact just a day or two ago she said "When we are in Melbourne we'll have to try and get your friend a Lions jumper".
