For many of us, the Jonas Brothers were a key part of our childhoods.
Comprised of Nick Jonas on piano, Joe Jonas on rhythm guitar and Kevin Jonas on lead guitar, the trio have put out a number of smash hits across their six albums over the decades like 'Year 3000' and 'Burnin' Up' as well as their newer stuff including 'Only Human' and 'Sucker'.
They also starred in Camp Rock (2008) and its 2010 sequel, Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam, as well as their own Disney Channel series Jonas, which was rebranded as Jonas L.A. for its second season.

But, in the latest update regarding the famous family pop band, Kevin has revealed his real name and it's left fans seriously shocked.
Earlier this week, the 37-year-old singer took to TikTok where he shared with his 1.9 million followers the news.
In a six-second clip, Kevin could be seen mouthing words and using explanatory hand gestures as the overlay text on the video read:

"My first names not Kevin.

He captioned the clip: "Should I change my handle to PaulJonas?"
After catching light of the news, fans rushed to social media to share their reactions to the clip which has since racked up a mammoth 3.4 million views with one writing: "PAUL JONAS??? I feel like I've been catfished all my life."
"Biggest plot twist since Hannah Montana took off the wig," joked a second, while a third chimed in: "DO PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE CALL YOU PAUL I'm so stressed!"

A fourth declared: "Joe, Nick and Paul… doesn’t sound right lol!"
"My entire teenage life is shattered," lamented a fifth.
Others, however, were clearly already well into the loop regarding the whole Paul thing with one writing: "Any OG fan has known that for years."
"Any OG JB fan knows his real name is Paul Kevin Jonas II," hit out a second.

Another mused: "Any real JoBro fan knows this."
And a final fan echoed: "Real Jonas Brothers fans always knew his name!"
The Jonas Brothers formed in 2005 but went through a hiatus between 2010 and 2011 to pursue solo projects before eventually reuniting in 2012 to record a new album.
However, this was later cancelled following their break-up in 2013.
Six years following their split, the group reunited with the release of 'Sucker' in 2019, much to their fans' delight.
