Worldwide, Jaafari (الجعفري , Jaafari , جعفري ) is quite a rare principally male, but very infrequently female forename. The given name Jaafari is characteristic of Oman, where it is quite a rare boy's name, Libya, and Egypt. In absolute terms, this name is the most popular in Northern Africa, particularly Egypt, Morocco, and Sudan. Predominantly, Jaafari is the last name as well as the forename.
