The show's creators either did this as a device to keep us in suspense until the final last moments when we see John Locke in the coffin, and then we know that Jeremy Bentham is Locke, but the characters in the Flash Forwards only use the name Jeremy Bentham to refer to Locke. They never call him by his old/original name.
So it got me thinking...is Jeremy Bentham indeed the same John Locke that we knew that crashed on the island, who is just going by a different alias when he's back in society for whatever reason? Or is he some sort of doppelganger (like the two #15 bunnies)? Is he a Locke twin that was created by altering some time space continuum, maybe via the device Ben was using that you're not supposed to put metal in? I think there's something going on here with "Jeremy" other than just being an alias Locke was using back in the states.

Wow, twins in time... that's a good theory. How many of us are there when we time travel?
To make another Twin Peaks analogy here, Locke *did* go in Jacob's cabin (my theoretical Black Lodge=LOST equivalent). Where there's black lodge/supernatural cabins, there's sure to be doppelgangers.
