Maybe this is why Jeff never revealed his last name. Although he might have hinted at it… “just Jeff—first and last and always it’s Jeff”. The Alpha and Omega, and eternal… (We’d better hope that Othello Jeff was a pseudonym, because that hints in the other direction – I don’t like the look of what comes immediately after the ‘Ot’ and before the last ‘o’!)
@Bigger J: In M&J’s early days, Jeff had escaped from a mental institution, and believed himself to be Thomas Jefferson. As that storyline faded into obscurity, he was thereafter referred to only as “Jeff”.

Once in the later years of the strip, Jeff was identified as “Othello Jeff”, but other than that he was “just Jeff – first last and always it’s Jeff”.
