Im taking a stab here....but i believe the name change does represent a paradigm change. Puff Daddy was the go-go, mo-mo, ride em' cowboy Bull market persona. His changing names does signify a change of personality. Stock Operator represents a true speculator,(i think he has adapted his namesakes trading personality) any movement will be traded, but Livermore made his killings more so as a short than a Bull. He was often contrarian, to others dismay. He felt there was always plenty to be made on the way down. People hated him and tried to bust his Short positions many times. Yes, he got busted a few times but he retired famous and wealthy as hell. If Puff did lose alot (per the unsubstantiated speculation) it appears he has picked a good choice as his model for recovery. The times of Livermore and today have a lot of parallels so perhaps he is prescient here. Just my two...
