Chad Ochocinco hasn't filled out the paperwork yet, but he has indicated his intentions, according to the AP:

Ochocinco suggested at the end of an interview with ESPN on Tuesday that he’s planning to change his name back to Johnson. He didn’t give a specific reason, other than saying he’s “done enough with the Ocho thing.”No word if this is a consequence of being stranded on "Revis Island":
He has talked about changing his name several times. Leading up to a game against the [New York] Jets during the 2009 season, he insisted that he would change his name back to Johnson if cornerback Darrelle Revis shut him down. Ochocinco failed to catch a pass, but kept his name. He later said his comments were made in fun and he was never serious about a name change.
