From up from slavery by booker t. washington from the time when i could remember anything, i had been called simply “booker.” before going to school it had never occurred to me that it was needful or appropriate to have an additional name. when i heard the school-roll called, i noticed that all of the children had at least two names, and some of them indulged in what seemed to me the extravagance of having three. i was in deep perplexity, because i knew that the teacher would demand of me at least two names, and i had only one. by the time the occasion came for the enrolling of my name, an idea occurred to me which i thought would make me equal to the situation; and so, when the teacher asked me what my full name was, i calmly told him “booker washington,” as if i had been called by that name all my life; and by that name i have since been known. later in my life i found that my mother had given me the name of “booker taliaferro” soon after i was born, but in some way that part of my name seemed to disappear and for a long while was forgotten, but as soon as i found out about it i revived it, and made my full name “booker taliaferro washington.” i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i have.
