mark twain’s real name is samuel langhorne clemens. why is the man born as samuel clemens more widely known as mark twain? it has something to do with his love of the mississippi river, and his time as a pilot of the great steamboats. "mark twain" was an old term used on the river. it meant that the water was two fathoms or twelve feet deep, which meant it was safe.
this term was first used as a personal name by captain isaiah sellers, an old, knowledgeable man. he liked to send his advice and opinion to local newspapers, where he named himself mark twain.
in 1861, clemens wrote a very funny story about sellers. the story was for clemens’own, and other pilots’amusement. however, a man named bart bowen gave it to one of the new orleans newspapers. captain sellers saw and read the piece, and was deeply hurt by it. he never published his opinion again, and clemens felt bad about the part he had played in this.
in 1863, clemens was out west, in carson city. he heard that sellers had passed away. then he decided to use the name, mark twain, for himself. soon, clemens became known as mark twain, on paper and in real
life.
