I've thought about this song some more and I think I understand why he switches to the name Danny at the end. It ties together with the refrain, where he says "if he just knew my name." My theory is that the boy who's in love with "Jesse" doesn't actually know his name. Later, he learns his real name, Danny, and begins to use that.
