They’re just like us…some artists have middle names they may love or not so much. Take a look, here, at 7 country stars middle names that may surprise you. It’s not that they are bad names or good names, perhaps it’s more that they don’t seem to fit. Or maybe their middle names are a little unusual.
Growing up, I kind of liked my middle name, but was always perplexed by it. It didn’t have a special meaning and wasn’t a family name, my mother just liked it, I guess. My middle name is Beth. It’s not Elizabeth, just Beth. I always thought Elizabeth sounded more regal and definitely more fancy! It doesn’t seem to fit, but I do like the name Beth. So, you catch my drift about middle names that may surprise you?
You may have read my article about country stars who go by their middle names. There are quite a few very famous names on that list. But here, I looked for country stars’ middle names that may surprise you.
I did read once that Kenny Chesney never liked his middle name, Arnold. I’m sure everyone would prefer cool sounding names, but many of us get stuck with family names from days gone by that aren’t very popular anymore. Alan Jackson’s middle name is Eugene. His dad also had that middle name, so apparently it was a family tradition. Alan didn’t get the chance to pass along that family name, as he has 3 daughters.
Using a little help from Country Music Nation and my own research, I’ve complied a list of 7 country stars’ middle names that may surprise you, or may be a little out of the ordinary.

Do you have a somewhat unusual middle name?
