Chad Ochocinco is changing his name again
Yahoo Sports ^ | Jan 26, 2011 | Chris Chase

Chad Johnson is making a comeback. Three years after changing his last name to Ochocinco, the man born Chad Javon Johnson will be going back to his given surname.

"I've done enough with Ochocinco," the former Mr. Johnson told ESPN's Trey Wingo. Yes, like having the least productive stretch of his career since the name change became official.

Ochocinco didn't elaborate on why he was making the change, but given that his return to Cincinnati is questionable, the logical explanation is that he wants a fresh start wherever he ends up. That means no silly name changes and probably no fighting with his coach, like he's currently doing now. (If Ochocinco does stay in Cincinnati, he'd have to pay for the unsold "Ochocinco" jerseys.)

I had hoped that he would be traded to Detroit because they had retired the number 85 so Chad would have to change his name. Now he's doing it by himself without being traded. :-(

Oh. Haven’t you heard? Parcells, the loser, ran out in the dead of night a few months ago and hasn’t been heard from since. He’s got to be the most over rated buffoon in NFL history! Not to mention he was helping in consult with the JETS while taking big money from the Dolphins!

I’ve always wondered how Malcolm X got his name. Maybe he signed his name with an “X” so many times he got to liking it?

Malcolm Little
He felt that his name of "Little" was his slave name. X is unknown in relationship to math and that is why he gave himself the last name of X..unknown

As a Patriots fan I hope Mr. Johnson goes to the USFL - Yes, I know it's defunct.
