Hi, Burty. I've always been called Tim. My first name is Jonathan. So the "J" really is my first initial. This is pretty common, at least in the U.S., for a person to go by his middle name. It has nothing to do with pomposity.
So, why not just use "Tim King"? Well, if you Google for "Tim King," you'll get a long list of people, and I'm not even on the first page. If you Google for "J. Timothy King," I am the first page (save one or two links). So for a by-line, I always use "J. Timothy KIng," which is also what's on my business cards. But just call me "Tim."

actually sounds good with the initial in the beginning and the king in the end
like J. Henry IIX, King.
