IMDB, the Internet Movie Database, confirms what you learned in class. According to IMDB, Johnny Cash was given the name "J.R." because his parents Ray Cash and Carrie Cash couldn't agree on a name, only on initials. He adopted "John R. Cash" when he joined the Air Force, which did not accept initials. So, it looks like the R does not stand for anything. He does not have a middle name, only a middle initial.

In the movie "Walk The Line", they called him J.R. when he was young... so I think it's J. R. Cash... R. probably stands for Reallycool.
LOL, actually... What does the R. stand for in Johnny Cash's middle name? Ray.

I don't know his middle name but when I went to memphis in May, I held one of his guitars and went to the house where he lived on the lake - that was pretty cool!!!

...there´s no middle name, his name was just J.R., they changed it to "John" (I think when he joined the army), you should ask Wikipedia, theres much written about him......
