Macaulay Culkin has revealed he changed his legal name. The former child star, 45, shared his “actual name” at A Nostalgic Night, an event celebrating the 35th anniversary of Home Alone on Nov. 22. In 2018, a poll was announced on Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show asking fans to vote to change his middle name. The contenders included “The McRib Is Back” and “Kieran,” a reference to his brother, Oscar-winning actor Kieran Culkin. “That would be great. I love my brother. Between me and him, we have exactly one Oscar,” the actor joked. A month after the poll, the actor shared on Twitter that fans voted to change his middle name from Carson to Macaulay Culkin. The actor followed through and legally changed his middle name to Macaulay Culkin in 2019. “So my name is Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin,” the actor said. He joked that if someone came up and asked him if he was Macaulay Culkin, he could say, “Well, Macaulay Culkin is my middle name.” “I did it all for that one joke. And a bit on Fallon,” he said.
