Specifically, I'm referring to the logos on the side of their football helmets. They seem to use the exact same "G" but in different colors. I was wondering who came up with the design of the G first.

From Wikipedia.com:
The oval "G" logo was created in 1961 by Packers equipment manager Dad Braisher. The team actually used a number of different logos prior to 1961, but the "G" is the only logo that has ever appeared on the helmet.[13] Although other organizations, notably the University of Georgia and Grambling State University, utilize a similar logo, the Packers were the first to employ it and hold the trademark for it. [14] However, the University of Georgia does hold some rights to the logo and was not required to remove the "G" logo as Grambling State University was because Vince Dooley slightly redesigned the "G" logo in 1964. Green Bay's current, redesigned "G" logo is modeled after the University of Georgia's redesign of the original "G" logo.[citation needed]

That is a very interesting question as both Georgia and Green Bay didn't even have a logo probably until the mid to late 50's is my guess. I believe Green Bay was first.

Not that this answers your Q but a little more info. Theres a 1-AA program (very successful btw) called Grambling State University who also uses the exact same "G" pattern but with black and gold being the primary colors.
