Just an update to further confuse and confound:

this morning the decrypt of Buskirk is working as expected and Buskirk is coming out instead of burkirj - with no code changed.

Maybe there was a solar flare..

I am definitely not trimming anywhere. I have reconfirmed again.  I am not sure of the charaset in oracle at the moment but I will check that - thanks.

while my development machine is CF7 the production server is cf6.1 so I can't use the other options suggested for CF7 - but thanks for the thoughts.

thanks to Roland for the explaination of why two different encrypted strings might come out to the same decrypted result.

thanks to everyone for looking at it.

sort of - somehow my encrypted string is losing its trailing space.  However, buskirj encrypted comes out with a trailing 0 and a space
but if you decrypt either the encrypted buskirk without the trailing space OR the encrypted buskirj they both return buskirj

it is the only string I am having this problem with.  I can't find a single reason for losing the trailing space in the encrypted buskirk but it is causing a user with that last name untold grief.

What charset is your Oracle table (again, my knowledge of Oracle is limited)?  According to the documentation:
string
String to encrypt or decrypt. This is always interpreted as a UTF-8 string for ColdFusion encryption.

I'm thinking that maybe if you are using something like latin charset - you might be losing some characters etc.  I know I'm talking to myself at the moment, but trying to get all the possibilities out there.

Best,
