Jackie Chan was born Chan Kong-sang which means born in Hong Kong but there was a hidden family history that his father only told him about after his mother died in 2002. Charles Chan (Jackie's father) had worked for the Nationalist Party in China and fled China in 1949. Fearing reprisals from the Communist Party he changed his name from Fong Dou Long to Charles Chan by taking his wife's name as his own. Charles secretly registered Jackie in the family book (the traditional way of keeping birth records in China) as Fong Si Long. So therefore Jackie's real name is Fong Si Lung but his official name is Jackie Chan Kong-sang because Jackie did not change his name after his father revealed the truth about his past.
Actually his birth name is Chan Kong-sang.
Jackie Chan's real birth name is Chan Kong-sang. However it is also Fang Si Lung because his father changed his name from Fang to Chan.
