If James can't do much besides disappoint his father in the smallest of ways and break when faced with school (when the going gets tough, the "tough" sit down and gripe about it!), then he's reasoned that he should move on from his family name. He won't be a "Potter" anymore, just "James." Yeah, "James" suits him just fine.
Professor Finch–Fletchley agrees. After all, he's just "Justin" to you, James. Contemporaries…friends…loves…
He's just "Justin" and you're just "James." There's no need to break life down further, just as there's no need to live up to anyone's expectations, luv.
