Elton Hercules John is his actual real name, since he legally changed it in 1972 by deed poll. His birth name was Reginald Kenneth Dwight.
As the story goes, he borrowed the name "Elton" from a saxaphone player in one of his earlier bands. When trying to determine a new last name, he reportedly asked his bandmates what they thought would go well with it. Given the unusual name, one bandmate suggested adding something simple and what was more simplier than "John".
