Martin Luther King Jr. was christened Michael King Jr. When his father became pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church in 1931, he adopted the name Martin Luther King Sr. — in honor of Protestant leader Martin Luther — 

When MLK was six years old, his father changed his name on his birth certificate to Martin Luther King, Jr.
He skipped the 9th and 12th grades in school and entered Moorehouse College at age 15.
In 1939, Martin sang with his church choir in Atlanta at the gala premiere of the movie “Gone With The Wind”.
From 1957 until his death in 1968, he traveled more than 6 million miles. He gave over 2500 speeches during his travels. He also wrote 5 books and had published countless numbers of articles in newspapers and magazines.
There are over 900 streets named after Martin Luther King, Jr. around the world. Forty U.S. states have at least one MLK Jr. named road of their own.
In 1964, at age 35, he was the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
According to a 1999 Gallup poll, King is the second most admired person in the 20th century, coming in second to Mother Theresa.
Martin Luther King’s favorite foods were pecan pie and fried chicken.
Although he was only 39 at the time of his death, autopsy results revealed the Civil Rights icon had the heart of a 60-year-old. The doctor believed this was a result of stress.
