What's in a name?

For 80-year-old Donald McGovern — a whole lot.

The man from Tallahassee, Florida, shares a last name with a failed Democratic presidential candidate (George McGovern '72), was elated when a candidate (Donald Trump) with whom he shares a first name was elected as the 45th president of the United States.

So much so that, days before Trump was sworn in, the retiree filed for a name change: He requested that his middle name, Charles, be changed to "Trump," making him Donald Trump McGovern

"Because I totally, totally believe in the man," McGovern said about his intention behind the name change. "Because I totally believe in his forwardness."

The change-of-name request, which he filed on Jan. 6, was granted mid-April.
