haha! I found this: Top 10 Hints for Naming Your Baby. maybe it's just me, but I think most of this advice is awful. I got a laugh out of it, though...
actually, it's the other way -- Jeffrey is the americanized form of Geoffrey, the original form. and both are the same as Godfrey, which is english for the german Gottfried (my grampa's name). so it's actually jeff that's the, well, not "unique" spelling, but the later one.
Right -- that's cool, but the point is that they're all pronounced the same way... prob. should have picked a better example, like Karri/Keri/Carrie or something.
