More About the Mystery of BO

Thanks to some enterprising blogger having posted "Barry Obama's" high school yearbook picture, we know from 1979 he was known as Barry Obama.

So how far back does the "Obama" name go? Does it go back from birth, and the mother decided to name this kid after his dad using the dad's surname, which was rather unusual then, but could have happened? If so, where does "Soetoro" come in? Was he really adopted by his stepdad?

It still doesn’t make sense he would be Obama then Soetoro then Obama again, assuming Obama is on his birth certificate and not Dunham.


Here is the high school yearbook photo:
