The "My Name Is Jeff" meme originates from the 2014 comedy film *22 Jump Street*, where actor Channing Tatum's character, Jenko, tries to introduce himself with a fake name but ends up awkwardly saying, “My name is Jeff.” The delivery, combined with the unexpectedness of the situation, made the line instantly memorable. The clip quickly went viral, and internet users began remixing it with various humorous captions or edits, often pairing it with unrelated images or videos. The meme became a popular way to represent awkward or failed attempts at introductions, and its absurdity led to widespread use across social media.
