He did, when he was about...oh, 4 or 5? He had a dog named Jacksie, and so originally Jacksie was the name he wanted to go by, but was eventually changed to Jack.

Hope this helps.

^ No, Ian. Actually, Carol and I had it right. He chose it entirely on his own when he was very young.

Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.
