Let's analyze the meaning of his true name:
Siddhartha Gautama
Siddhartha: his personal name (much like our first names)
Gautama: his family name
Sometimes also known as: Shakyamuni, which means "sage of the Shakya tribe".
However, he was called the name Buddha from the time he left his home to achieve Enlightenment.
Namaste.
