LAKE CITY, Fla. (AP) – A man who wanted to change his
name to God chose a new name when a judge turned down his request.
The former Charles Haffey’s new name is I Am who I
Am.
The former Haffey said after his first choice was
rejected in April, he went to the Bible to find a backup. He drew on a passage
where Moses asks God who he is and hears: “I am who I am or I will be who I will
be.”
“That’s kind of wordy, so I’m just going for ‘I Am Who I
Am’ as my full legal name,” he said. “My first name, of course, would be ‘I
Am.'” [Full
