as Jeeves]]
Reginald Jeeves is a fictional character created by P. G. Wodehouse. He is the quintessential "gentleman's personal gentleman", or valet. As with all of Wodehouse's male domestic servants, Jeeves is always known by his surname. For over fifty years after his first appearance, Wodehouse gave him no other name, but in Much Obliged, Jeeves (1971) a minor character addressed him as "Reggie," suggesting that his first name was Reginald.

Jeeves is well-known for his convoluted speech and for quoting from, among other things, the plays of Shakespeare and famous romantic poets. He also has distinct opinions about certain items that Bertie adopts, such as a moustache, handkerchiefs with initials, straw boater, an alpine hat, or purple socks. Should Jeeves express his diapproval for an accessory of Bertie's, it is certain that Bertie will dispose of it some way or another before the end of the story.

Jeeves is a member of the Junior Ganymede Club, a club for butlers and valets, in whose club book all members must write down all the wrongdoings of their employers; the book proves alternately helpful and embarrassing to Bertie.

The character's propensity for wisdom and knowledge is so well known that it inspired the search website Ask Jeeves.

Stephen Fry portrayed Jeeves alongside Hugh Laurie in the early-1990s ITV series Jeeves and Wooster.
