actually i believe his folks got back together and he took his dad's name again.
quote:
Peterson matured in more than just football last season. He arrived in Baton Rouge last August and changed his name from Johnson, his mother's maiden name, to Peterson, his father's surname.
"My name should've been Peterson a long time ago – my mom and dad got married when I was about 12," he said. "In my mom's family, if you aren't married you get your mom's last name. That's just how it is."
Peterson's father, Patrick Sr., said the change was something better left until after high school.
"He would've had to miss class and go through a lot of paper work, and it would've slowed him down," he said. "Me and his mom have been together for 23 years but only married for four or five years, and he always wanted my name. So when he got to Baton Rouge, it just felt like the time was right."

I wonder if Avery will do the same thing since the father wanted PP to wait till after high school to do it
