The prime source of information on Prince Siddhartha Gautama's life that has been spoken of more than 2500 years has never mentioned of any name change. He the Enlightened One is recognized by Buddhists in his time the supreme Buddha. Siddhartha also known as Shakyamuni was the Buddha to be. Siddhartha was born in Lumbini into the royal family of The Kingdom of Shakyas in modern day Nepal. Siddhartha sought out the truth by renouncing his wealth and riches to overcome aging, sickness and death. "Buddha" in the language of the Buddha simply means "awake".
