What was Michael Jackson’s middle name?

Michael Jackson’s name appeared as “Michael Joe Jackson” on his driver’s license (issued in 1985), according to California Department of Motor Vehicles documents reproduced in FBI records. That name was also used in California court records. However, the singer’s name appeared as “Michael Joseph Jackson” in autopsy reports and on a death certificate, as well as in a will filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court shortly after Jackson’s death on June 25, 2009.
