Default BJ Penn's real name?

i was just wondering what bj penn's real name is because i heard the UFC commentators say bj stands for baby j, i just thought it would be cool to know what his real name is.

Jay Dee "B.J." Penn (born December 12, 1978 in Hilo, Hawaii) is an American professional mixed martial arts fighter and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner. He is the first American-born winner of the World Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Championship (Mundial) in the black belt category (2000), a former UFC Welterweight Champion, and is a coach on the upcoming The Ultimate Fighter 5 reality show. His nickname "B.J." is short for "Baby Jay", as he is the youngest of his male siblings, all of whom are named "Jay Dee Penn".[1]


i got that from wikipedia....

Yeah, this is the classic case of J standing for Jay.


Like with Homer J. Simpson.

Imagination? Try former heavyweight champ George Foreman on for size. George has 7 children - 5 boys named George and 2 daughters, Freeda George and Georgetta! And yes, all five had the same middle name, Edward.

Where have you seen the name as Jat? Not questioning you, just never saw that.

He's listed on official movie credits as Jay and his brother has seemingly always gone by the name Jay Dee in all his ventures like ROTR and EliteXC. Never saw Jat before.
