The "J" in J. Bruce Ismay is Joseph. As to why he was called "Bruce", it was likely no more then a personal preference.
 
Lots of people go by their middle names. I do, mainly because I dislike my first name. My father also used his middle name, as did most of his siblings, though I don't know what their reasons were.
