History & Origin

Jeffren is a contemporary coinage built from Jeffrey, a name brought to England by the Normans and rooted in a Germanic compound whose clearest element, 'frid', means peace. Trimming Jeffrey and adding -en gives a name that honors the old peace-root while reading as modern.

In United States records Jeffren appears in small numbers in the twenty-tens and early twenty-twenties. A boy given it then is still a child; the name is a thin recent coinage.

Did you know? The -frey in Jeffrey, and so the heart of Jeffren, comes from a Germanic word 'frid' meaning peace.
