Name originThe company carries the surname of its founder, Ferdinand Porsche. The formal name Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche is short for his full title in German, Doktor-Ingenieur honoris causa, an honorary doctorate in engineering.Wikipedia does not explain where the name 9ff comes from. It does record that the company was founded by Jan Fatthauer and that it specializes in Porsche conversions. The 9 may allude to the Porsche 911 line, but that is an assumption and not a documented fact.
