Twain’s journey to stardom began with a significant name change. Born Eilleen Regina Edwards, she was adopted and became Eilleen Regina Twain.
As she embarked on her singing career, she felt the need for a stage name that was distinct from her given name, which honored her grandmothers, Eilleen and Regina.
