She changed her name to Rebecca when she was baptized, which was just before she got married to John Rolfe.
In 1613 Pochahontas was kidnapped by Captain Samuel Argall and held (at the fort) for a year as a bargaining chip in dealings with her father. In captivity she was baptized and christened Rebecca, and in 1614 married John Rolfe, with whom she had a son, Thomas.pocahontas
Yes Pocahontas Did Marry Kocoum. The Real Pocahontas Anyway. The Disney Pochontas Didnt as Kocoum Died In The Story. The Real Pocahontas never married or even had a relationship with John Smith as she was only 10 when she met him when he came to Jamestown looking for gold. He was over 15 years older than her at the time. After He Left, many years later Pocahontas is said to have married Kocoum. Although nothing much is known about their relationship. A few years later she moved to London as the wife of John Rolfe (Not John Smith). Suggestions Have Been Made That Pocahontas was still married to Kocoum at the time. After Her Marrage To Rolfe She was Baptised and Called Lady Rebecca and From That Day On Known as Rebecca Rolfe.
John Rolfe got married to Pocahontas and Pocahontas got married to John Rolfe. They had a baby Thomas Rolfe a year later :)
"You do not love me now. Someday, you will."-John Rolfe
Rebecca Rolfe is the British name for Pocahontas.
Everyone calls her Pocahontas, but her actual name was Matoaca. Pocahontas was a nickname that means little playful one. She married John Rolfe, and became Rebecca Rolfe.
No John Smith was not married to Rebecca Rolfe.

Pocahontas was engaged to Kocoum, but married John Rolfe.
Actually, her FIRST name was not Pocahontas. THAT was a nickname- it means "little playfull one". Her REAL first name was Matoaca. She did not have a last name. However, she married John Rolfe, and became Rebecca Rolfe.
The assumption is to adapt to the "white man's world" since she married a Caucasian. No one knows for certain why she chose Rebecca. She had converted to Christianity and possibly took the name from the Bible. Rolfe was the surname of her husband, John Rolfe.
