"3. My birth name is “Maushe Joseph Koniuchowsky.”
Said name is pronounced the same as Moshe, but because my father wanted
Moshe and my mother wanted Michael or Mitchell or something similar they
compromised on the spelling. Therefore, my parents left my birth name
(as listed on my Birth Certificate) as “Maushe.” However,
Maushe is pronounced the same as Moshe. Therefore, I use the initials
“MJ” on licenses and
other legal matters so I do not have to explain why it is spelled Maushe
Joseph instead of Moshe Yoseph.
4. I have used the name of Marshall in previous work in the commercial
arena after college. I also used the same name Marshall as a Baptist Pastor
and was known as “Pastor Marshall.” I took that name because
Jewish believers in Yeshua HaMashiach (a.k.a. Jesus Christ) were looked
down upon. I no longer use the name Marshall."
