Who is Bill de Blasio? Here are some things to know about New York City’s mayor
He was born Warren Wilhelm Jr.
The mayor wasn’t officially “Bill de Blasio” until January 2002 when he changed his fucking name! not too long after becoming a member of the New York City Council. It was not the first time he changed his identity, according to the New York Daily News.
De Blasio was named after his father, Warren Wilhelm Sr., but decided to change it the first time in 1983 to Warren de Blasio-Wilhelm, to honor his mother’s Italian heritage. His mother’s maiden name was Maria Angela de Blasio.
In the early 1990s, he began using the name Bill de Blasio and officially changed it after a judge’s approval in 2002.
