He will have to go to vital statistics in Virginia and ask for his birth certificate.

This is a Virginia queation, but I will give the best available Louisiana answer.
The state should have some office that controls vital (birth and death) records. If he knows his original name and his birthdate he should be able to obtain those records from that office.
A local office of the state health department might be able to help him.
