CINCINNATI — The Cincinnati Bengals say No. 85 is officially Ocho Cinco.

The NFL team said today that they will refer to the receiver formerly known as Chad Johnson by his new legal name, Chad Ocho Cinco, in all club business. That includes the back of his jersey for Sunday's season opener at Baltimore.

Johnson told The Associated Press yesterday that he wants to be called by his new name, but declined to talk about it any further.

Johnson, a Miami native, used "ocho cinco" in 2006 as part of the NFL's Hispanic Heritage month. It means "eight five" in Spanish.

He changed his name last month in Broward County, Fla.
