FULL NAME: James Orlando GUIN
NICKNAME: Buddy Guin
Odie Lee "Bud" GUIN, Sr. told his niece, Nancy Loyette GUIN, the story about his father's middle name. James did not have a middle name, but he got so tired of people asking him about it that he just made one up. He would tell people that his middle name was "Orlando" but he thought it started with the letter "R" since he pronouned it "R-lando" so "R" became his middle initial. At first, this was thought to be simply a family legend until his World War I Draft Registration Card was discovered with the name, James Orlando GUIN, boldly declared on it, complete with matching birth information, address, and the name of his wife, Mary, listed there. His WWI Draft Registration card clearly gives his full name as James Orlando Guin living in Kennedy, Lamar County, Alabama, on Sept 12, 1918 when he registered for the WWI draft.
