Singer Jermaine Jackson has legally changed his last name to Jacksun for 'artistic reasons'.
The 58-year-old submitted paperwork at the Los Angeles County Superior Court in November to change his last name to Jacksun and it has finally been approved, reported TMZ.
Jermaine had to publicly announce his name change several times in either a magazine or newspaper over the period of a few months before it became official.
Last year, Jermaine released an album of classic jazz songs 'I Wish You Love' and is currently performing in Europe as part of The Jacksons' Unity Tour with his brothers Jackie, Marlon and Tito.
The band have been performing all of their biggest hits including 'ABC', 'I Want You Back' and 'I'll Be There' as part of the remembrance tour for their late younger brother Michael, who died in 2009.
The siblings recently claimed Michael was persecuted like Jesus.
They think the late King of Pop's life mirrored the Biblical figure's own existence in many ways because of the effect he had on people and the way his life was destroyed.
