He didn't add it, he went back to it. If I'm recalling an article or two about him correctly, his agent had him as John Cougar as a stage name on his first album (allegedly without JM knowing about it). When he became a big enough star to have the clout he went back to his own name but probably retained the "Cougar" so people wouldn't get confused.
Cheers,
