Sean “Diddy” Combs is a man of many businesses, children and aliases.

From his humble Mount Vernon, N.Y., beginnings as “Puffy,” to his ascension into the music mogul “Puff Daddy,” to his 2001 transformation into “P. Diddy,” to eventually settling on “Diddy” in 2005—we’ll omit his brief flirtation with “Brother Love”—the Combs Enterprises chairman and CEO has run almost the entire gamut of peculiar nicknames and rap monikers.
