After fans voted in a poll last month, Home Alone star, Macaulay Culkin has a new middle name of Macaulay Culkin.

Last month during The Tonight Show, Culkin revealed that a poll was open on his site, BunnyEars, in which fans would be able to vote on his new middle name, which he promised to legally adopt. At the time the 38-year-old former kid actor told Jimmy Fallon that he was ready for a new middle name.

On his BunnyEars website, Culkin also expressed his want for a new middle name. “My middle name is something dumb. Larry? Orange? Honestly, I can’t even remember it,” Culkin wrote last month. “So I asked you all to send in some better options so I can go down to the courthouse and explain to a judge why I need to change my middle name to something cool.”

In the poll which started last month and ended on Christmas Eve, 60,990 people voted for “Macaulay Culkin” to be his new middle name, while “TheMcRibIsBack” came in second with 14,558 votes, “Kieran“ reaching the top three with 13,559 votes, and “Publicity Stunt” at fourth place with 9,644 votes. 

On Christmas Day, Culkin took to Twitter to wish his fans a Merry Christmas and reveal the winner of the poll. 

“Merry Christmas to me, from all of you! My new middle name has been chosen,” he wrote. “You voted and the winner is clear. In 2019 my new legal name will be: Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin. It has a nice ring to it (if you like my name). #MerryChristmas.”

While speaking about the possibility of his middle name becoming Macaulay Culkin with Fallon, Culkin joked “so, if somebody comes up to me at the airport, and says, ‘Excuse me, are you, Macaulay Culkin?’ I’d go, ‘Well Macaulay Culkin is my middle name.”
