The second batch of Country Stars' Real Names contains a few artists that simply altered their first, middle or last names to become who they are today, and some that took sweeping artistic liberties to create stage names that have grown into legacies. One star even added a Jr. to his stage name, but who's going to argue with him? 

A few of country's biggest hitmakers changed their names to monikers that are easier to remember than their real names -- or at least not quite as strange. The first set of Country Stars' Real Names was such a hit that we've come up with a few more to read through. You may just learn a thing or two! In addition to the stars pictured above, find the real names of Johnny Paycheck, RaeLynn, Travis Tritt and Randy Houser. Click the big button below to get started.
