Conjecture. But he's not the one who's playing the banjo, so "Banjo-tuning Old Man" isn't accurate.

A character who looks exactly like him (same figure, same clothes, holding a pipe, sitting on a rocking chair on the porch of a shack in a swamp) can be seen in the Rivers of America boat tour at WDW. That character has an official name - Beacon Joe - but whether or not that name also applies to the guy in POTC, I don't know.
