From season 1 to the end of the series, JJ was never called James by.......

[TVFactFan]

any of his girlfriends

none of his bosses he worked

None of his male friends



Never got to see the character as a MAN and be referred to by his real name


Weird. Why would a boss not call him Mr. Evans or James?

I guess JJ liked his nickname. He probably told people to address him by it.

Not your supervisor unless you are mentally sick

We're talking about JJ here. He's a clown. "James" doesn't fit him as well as "JJ" does.

And that's the problem John Amos and Esther Rolle had with the show, the oldest son never growing up

How come a mentally "sick"/disabled person can't call his supervisor or boss or school-teacher by his/her surname rather than his first name (like Mr./Ms. [surname])? I understand that at a professional setting, you always had to refer to your boss/supervisor as Mr./Ms. [surname].
