That was a joke (and Addams Family reference). Look up Lurch, and you'll see why. Hope that helps. They said “Lurch” for one, and two, no that is not his real name.

In My Scrubs episode he is called Lurch (reference to Addams Show), not Lynch. In My Buddies Booty no one calls his Tom, it is "tell'em" In My Conventional Wisdom, we see Janitor talk to a coffee shop employee: Janitor: "And that how I got me name" Employee: "You do not look Asian" Of course, Janitor is known to make things up, so there is no reason to believe it is true. When he says "horrible names, back stabber, zebra poacher, Josh" it just meas that others called him that, not that its true. As for "The Fugitive" episode. If no one at the hospital knows his name, there is no reason to believe anyone at the movie shoot did. In the end, the Janitor already mentioned the name or did not, but know one would know if its true, cause he is always making things up. Here is a "soap" opera potential: In the episode after where JD's dad died, his brother Dan keeps says "My dad died" and J.D. keeps correcting him: "Our Dad". So it seems like Dan does not think they share a dad. Probably because the Janitor is J.D.'s real dad. Probably named Johny same as J.D. is. :-*) (*gasp* Ok, a few observations:

We find out in one episode that Janitor plays the guy from "The Fugitive" if you watch the credits to that movie I'll bet that it credits Neil Flynn to the role! Janitor= Fugitive guy, Fugitive guy= Neil Flynn, Janitor= Neil Flynn! VIOLA!
