I actually think it comes from a dog's name

I have a dvd of Michael and his "memories"/home videos and on it a friends of his (famous fella and his wife...cannot remember theirs names)

Anyhow they are at Neverland riding the ferris wheel and Michael says they own a dog named Blanket who is related to Liz Taylor's dog. He says something about the name Blanket and i cannot remember now what he says....something about being a protector i think.
I think he liked that and named him that for that reason

This was back in about 1992 or so (the video)

Yes and Gregory Peck was in "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Trust me on this.. Michael didnt name his son after a dog.. its to do with a theme in "To Kill a Mockingbird". Blanket means to Blanket someone with love and the main character is a misunderstood person much like MJ, who uses a blanket as a symbol of protection and love,

I dont make things up, you know!! .. actually! <!-- s:roll: -->:roll:<!-- s:roll: -->

The question should be "IF he ever gets tired" of the name that his father named him.

loma

I agree. He will probably go by Prince.
Unless, you know, he comes up with some terrible "rapper name". <!-- s --><!-- s -->

voiceforthesilent

I can see him taking on Michael's name since his brother is also named Prince. Especially if Michael really has been taken from us (I know...I'm just putting it out there).

I always wondered if he has another first name that we aren't aware of. <!-- s:?: -->:?:<!-- s:?: --> <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->

I think even if he changes it when he's older the media will still call him Blanket.

If I'm not mistaken, the legal name for 'Prince' is actually 'Michael, Jr.' and 'Blanket' is actually 'Prince'...I don't know, it's really confusing. <!-- s:? -->:?<!-- s:? -->
Agreed, though: the family should have clarified from the beginning. Nicknames are hard to undo, and I doubt he'll still want to be called 'Blanket' when he's trying to get girls when he's older! <!-- s --><!-- s -->

Actually Prince is
PRINCE MICHAEL JACKSON
And Blanket is:
PRINCE MICHAEL JACKSON II (The second)

Maybe he really ISNT called Blanket at home. Maybe it is just a media name???

Actually...

Child number 1: His name is Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. - Prince is only a nickname
Child number 3: His name is Prince Michael Jackson II - Blanket is his nickname
