∙ 12y agoDr. Seuss's real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel. He first began signing with the pen name Seuss during college at Darmouth. Theodor worked on the schools humor magazine which was known as Jack-O-Lantern. After being put on probation for "defying the laws of Prohibition" the night before Easter, he lost his position as editor-in-chief. He was only able to continue to write for the magazine (and get his work past school officials) by signing off with his middle name 'Seuss'. The Dr. later was added, because Seuss's father had always wanted him to become a doctor.
Seuss had planned on signing his real name to things that he he wrote that were more serious in nature.
