Etymology of GEFFREY

The name Geffrey is derived from the Old French name Geoffroy, which itself originated from the Germanic name Godfrey or Gottfried.

Godfrey consists of two elements: god, meaning god or good, and frey or fried, meaning peace or protection. Therefore, Godfrey can be understood to mean God's peace or God's protection.

Over time, Geoffroy evolved from Godfrey, and its spelling underwent further changes, eventually becoming Geffrey.
