The correct statement is:

**James will need to register the business with his local city as the name of his business differs from his own.**

When operating a sole proprietorship under a name that is different from the owner's legal name, many local jurisdictions require the business owner to register the business name, often referred to as a "Doing Business As" (DBA) name. Registration requirements can vary by location, so it's important for James to check the local regulations.
