Live Fast Die Fun Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Saw an interesting thing on Reddit.... Pic Kari posted and it has everyones name on it in the fam except Toms, but it does say Matthew ... Is it possible he switched his name around in high school or something...? :s Cause that would mean they replaced Matt with Matt... lol. This is something I've never heard or seen before, and I find it highly interesting. **** EDIT**** Apparently he DID go by Matt when he was a kid. Apparently his name he was given, was after his father, and he did go by Matt..... Thats fucking crazy? https://i.reddituploads.com/9388fd643b3741f4aec8355a84f4dc75?fit=max&h=1536&w=1536&s=ad61d2ba5855441687968079d0c04106 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helen Hoppus Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 if this really might be the case, it's really funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hit me up Jans ex Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 It's true. His full name is Thomas Matthew Delonge so he probably went by Matthew as that picture shows. Which is funny because skibas full name is Matthew Thomas Skiba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Value Man Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 I did not know this. Very interesting. I can never imagine him as a Matt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Live Fast Die Fun Posted August 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 This shit is blowing my mind. Especially cause Skiba is Matthew Thomas Skiba... And Tom is actually Mattew Thomas DeLonge ... Makes this whole blink thing even more crazy. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patient #48273 Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 I don't think Matthew is actually his first name, I think he just went by his middle name when he was younger. The yearbook may have printed his middle name first as a mistake or just because that was the name he went by. I'd be interested to know when/why he started consistently going by Tom though.

Zoltan Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 maybe he was called matt as a kid because his stepbrother (shon, from a different father) didn't want to call their old man dad. so the old guy was tom, the young guy was matt. then when they grow up, tom decided to use his real firstname.

Cheerios4u98 Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 11 hours ago, Clarke said: Thomas Matthew, but he went by Matt. He talks about it in this video at 1:15. His middle name is Matthew, but for some reason he went as Matt when he was a kid. Edit: if somebody makes a "blink replaced Matt with Matt" joke, you should go eat a tide pod Hahaha I've never seen this. "I was always having a lot of sex when I was a kid."
