We also got that Jaffa drink and we thought it was a catchy name.
Jaffa is a town in Israel famous for it's Oranges.

Jaffa Oranges.

Jaffa Cakes are popular in the UK as an orange flavoured confection( Is it a cake or a biscuit? Who Knows? Vat joke)

So Jaffa has a lot of connections to Oranges.

Nice name for a dog though.
