I think it's not used more as a middle name because any first name, paired with JO, gives the name a real Southern, country-feel, and that's not for everyone.

I've never known a Jo. I certainly would never approve of it on its own as a first name---much too nicknamey and seems very incomplete. Actually, that's why I wouldn't use it as a middle name, either, in addition to the country feel.
