Bubba’s Identity Revealed
They’ve figured out who Bubba is. Yahoo News:
What’s in a name? If you’re the former Raymond Allen Gray Jr., only one word — Bubba.
The 39-year-old Springfield native legally changed his name last month to reflect his childhood nickname. His new first name? Bubba. His new middle name? Bubba. One guess what his new last name is.
“I kind of like to laugh and joke, and it’s something silly to kind of poke fun with,” Bubba Bubba Bubba said.
The name change won’t be hard to get used to because he has long been known as “Bubba” or “Bubby” Gray, he said.
“My dad called me Buddy, and it got switched to Bubby. Some of the kids couldn’t pronounce Buddy too well, so they said Bubby, and it just stuck,” he said.
