Y&R: how did victor jr. become "adam?"?

Question

what did i miss?

Answer 1

adam is his middle name,he choose to use it.

Answer 2

Adam, or Victor Jr.'s middle name is Adam. He didn't want to take his birth name when he first came to town, so he used his middle name instead. Now, I believe he's changing it back.

Answer 3

Adam is his middle name.

He was born: Victor Adam Newman Jr.

After Cliff married Hope, and adopted, Vic Jr, his name became....

Victor Adam Wilson.

Answer 4

Snoopy Rocks has it right, but he always went by the Adam just until recently.

Right after the Gala and Sabrina died, and I think just after he left to go to Mexico he decided he wanted to be called Victor Jr. so that everyone would know that he was Victor's son and would accept him as so in regards to taking charge of the company since Victor was supposedly taking some needed time off since he just lost his wife.

I think most of us will agree that he just did that, so he could establish himself as Victor's son in case something did happen to Victor, since he knew Victor took Nick and Victoria out of his will and put him in.

Adam didn't fool me today with those tears for Victor, he could care less.

Did you notice how quickly right after that he showed up at NE and immediately demanded that the Board could go scr*w themselves because he was taking over the company now that Victor is gone and that means that he now owns the majority of Newman Enterprises and the Newman estate?

If he really cared about Victor, would he be so quick to act like it is a given already that Victor is gone?

He can't wait to get his grubby little hands on Victor's money and could care less if Victor is really dead or not!

Answer 5

As already stated he went by his middle name and adopted last name. But he's greedy butt saw an opportunity and he went for it when Victor wrote Nick and Victoria out of the will. His tears were as phony as a they come yesterday. Oh he's loves daddy alright that's why instead of grieving his taking over the helm at NE. More like he loves all he thinks he's inheriting! :~)

Answer 6

his middle name is adam, and he was raised as adam wilson because he never knew that his father was victor newman. he just found out that his father is victor when his mother hope died. he didn't feel like part of the newman family when he first moved there to genoa city so he went by adam wilson. but now since he is the only son that victor left anything to in his will he has decided to change his name back to victor adam newman jr.

Answer 7

I believe Adam (who was named Victor Jr by Hope) chose to go by Adam since he never really knew much about his father (Victor).  

Answer 8

His name is actually Victor Adam Wilson (Newman).

Answer 9

Because his birth name is Victor Adam Wilson (not Newman) and he wanted to go by the name Adam at first so that nobody would know that he was Victor's namesake and think that he got into the company based on his paternity.

Answer 10

He was raised as Adam Wilson,by his mother Hope and Cliff Wilson, who he thought was his real dad. He didnt find out that Victor was his real father until the day that Hope died. I believe his birth name is Victor Adam Newman Jr, but he always went by Adam Wilson

Answer 11

It was a name he chose he couldnt stand the thought of Victor for leaving his mom (he concidered abandoning)...
