"My name is James Edward Franco. Ted is a nickname for Edward. That's what my parents called me. I also got 'Teddy Ruxpin' a lot. It just got to a point where I got sick of it, so when a teacher called out 'James Franco' my junior year of high school, I didn't correct her"

About this Quote
In this quote, James Franco, a widely known star and filmmaker, is discussing his name and how he obtained the nickname "Ted." He describes that his full name is James Edward Franco, and his parents typically called him Ted as a shortened version of his middle name. However, he also mentions that he was often called "Teddy Ruxpin," a popular kids's toy, which ultimately became tedious for him. So, when a teacher called out his full name, James Franco, throughout his junior year of high school, he chose not to remedy her and welcomed his provided name rather of his nickname. This shows how he has grown to accept and value his complete name, James Franco, instead of being understood entirely by his nickname.
