Why do you think he changed his name from josef dzhugashvilli to josef Stalin?

Joseph changed his name to Stalin to help prove his image to the public. Because Stalin means 'Man of Steel' in Russian, meaning that was the image he wanted everyone to see! Further, Stalin's birth name was obviously not a Russian name. The form of the name is uniquely Georgian and Georgia was not Russia. He knew that the true Russians in the Bolshevik Party would look upon him as an outsider and that the people of Russia would not want a "foreigner" to have governmental authority over them. In addition, Stalin wanted to emulate Vladimir Lenin, who had adopted the name Lenin in favor of his birth name Ulyanov. "Stalin" had a similar ring to "Lenin" so for all the above reasons, especially for the "Man of Steel" reason, he chose that. And besides, everybody who was anybody in the Bolshevik Party just had to have a special revolutionary name. It was all the rage. Lenin, Stalin, Trotsky, Zinoviev, Kamenev, Kalinin and others were all pseudonyms chosen for one reason or another.
