Well it all started with GJJ. But Rorian Gracie trademarked it. So the generic term BJJ came about, denoting ti came from Brazil.
There are differences. GJJ is more self defense orientated, while BJJ is for competitions. At the end of the day, choking someone out or dislocating an elbow is the same in both of them.
