Why does EJ seem to get a new name every other day?

Over the past month, I've heard him called three different names... most of them by Bo. Is it being written like this, or does Peter Reckell just have a hard time remembering his name, hence making it up as he goes along?

- Elvis J. Wells

- EJ Junior

- Elvis DiMera

First off, where did the "Wells" come from? It's not his father's last name, it's not his stepfather's last name (Edmund's last name was Crumb). It's not even Kristen's last name -- Blake! WHY WELLS? It came out of nowhere. If it's a fake name that EJ adopted just to avoid people learning his true identity, then they need to address it.

Elvis DiMera is good. That is, after all, his real name. However, if his last name is DiMera, why do people only refer to him as such half the time, while referring to him as EJ Wells the other half? Pick a last name and stick with it! Perhaps they should simply change his abbreviated name from "EJ" to "JE":

JE = "Just Elvis"

The one that annoys me the most, though, is "EJ Junior." WHAAAAAAAT?! The 'J' in EJ stands for Junior! Henceforth, when they call him EJ Junior, they're essentially calling him "Elvis Junior Junior." It doesn't make sense. Bo, for the love of God, stop calling him EJ Junior! Writers, for the love of God, stop making him say it!

I get annoyed by this too, Kenny. And you're right. It's usually Bo that gives EJ all the damn nicknames.

I don't mind it too much but it grates on my nerves at times. Usually, Bo is just being sarcastic with it.

It reminds me of how every character use to pronounce Franco's name differently

OMG! Remember the way Roman used to say it?

FRANK-O!

I like EJ Wells or just plain EJ.......

EJ DiMera or Elvis DiMera wouldn't be bad if EJ himself said that he wanted to use the last name DiMera instead of Wells.....If that makes sense at all......

OMG! Remember the way Roman used to say it?

FRANK-O!

I swear we heard like 15 variations of his name.

Kenny, you should write a letter to Peter Reckell and tell him to stop. LOL

Bo does it to get on Elvis's nerves. I love it.

I was just thinking the other day about the days of yore when the only questions and plot holes were when we wondered if it was FRON-CO or FRANK-O, E-VON or I-VAN.

Sigh.

Bo does it to get on Elvis's nerves. I love it.

That is why I don't find it overly annoying

Well, it's getting on my nerves, too. I have done nothing to deserve this kind of punishment!! LoL

Since EJ was raised by Susan & Edmund at one point, I suggest Bo add these to his repertoire:

Elvis Banks Jr

Elvis Jr Banks

EJ Jr Banks

EJ Banks Jr

Elvis Crumb Jr

Elvis Jr Crumb

EJ Jr Crumb

EJ Crumb Jr.

I'll stop now.

I think Bo does it in much the same way Endora used to do it to Darren on Bewitched.

That isn't entirely true.....

That isn't entirely true.....

I have a whole different kind of punishment planned for you both, you BAD boys.
