Joffrey

Joffrey is a masculine given name. It is a variant of Geoffrey (or Geoffroy), derived from the medieval given name Geoffroi, which in turn comes from the Germanic Gottfried/Godfrid. In contemporary usage, Joffrey remains relatively uncommon, but it appears in literature, film, and the performing arts, often due to well-known characters or individuals with that name.

Notable references include Joffrey Baratheon, a fictional king in George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice
