Jef

Meaning of Jef

Jef is a lively twist on the classic Jeffrey, born from Germanic roots that blend “god” and “peace” like warm sunshine meeting a cool breeze. He leaps into conversation like a flamenco dancer, crisp and full of promise. In the 1960s and ’70s, he popped up for a handful of eager parents in the US—a hidden gem shining with low-key cool. His sound is short and sweet (/dʒɛf/), rolling off the tongue like castanets under an Andalusian sky. Choosing Jef today is like gifting a boy a burst of good vibes, a name that hums with playful energy and Latin warmth in just one bold syllable.
