Elton's real name is Reginald Kenneth Dwight. In the mid-sixties, his stage name was Reg Dwight. But he didn't like his name, he didn't think it sounded too hip, so he decided to change it. In his band at the time (Bluesology), the saxophonist was called Elton Dean, and he really liked his name, so he took Elton from there. He took the name John from Long John Baldry, a British Blues singer whom the band Bluesology was backing. He launched is first album, Empty Sky, in 1969 under the name of Elton John. He officially changed his name to Elton Hercules John in 1974.
