My father is from Kentucky. He was 2 years old before they gave him a name. Growing up, I always heard people call him JB or Jim. He always said that his name was James Benjamen. It wasn't until after he died 2 years ago that my uncle told me that when my dad came to Indiana when he was 16, he changed his name, just not legally. Although his social security card has James Benjamen on it. The name that he gave up: JETHRO!
