Genealogy Search (Morre Family)

So I am looking at the 1910 census for the US and it shows the following information

Head of Household as
Margett Morre age 50 is a black woman

Ben  Moore is age 21

Farris Moore is only 16 years old. He is single

Rachel Orr is 30 years old

Percy Russell is 16 years old.

The home town is listed as Columbus Ward 3 in Lowndes County, Mississippi

This is really confusing because my grandfather is Farris, but the question is what was his real name? Was his name Moore or Moone or Morre. The dates of birth and household names all align.
