WTF?

There's a sports caster/reporter in Birmingham named Jeh Jeh. I always thought the was odd, but frick it. Now, I'm watching the news and the Secretary of the DHS is named Jeh Johnson?

Is this a thing?

Illiteracy combined with "originality". Yes, unfortunately it has been a thing for many years now.

Didn't say it was permanently changed. I just didn't know this was a common nickname or abbreviation, but I see that a prominent public figure uses this abbreviation -- for what I don't know.

Just thought it was odd.
