Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Requests Legal Name Change

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, the daughter of Hollywood power couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, has made headlines as she celebrates her milestone 18th birthday. The teenager has filed a request with the court to allow her to drop her father’s surname from her own hyphenated name. If granted, her new legal name will be simply “Shiloh Jolie.”

A Family in the Spotlight

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie share six children together: three biological kids (including Shiloh and 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox) and three adopted children (sons Maddox and Pax, and daughter Zahara). Shiloh’s decision to move away from her well-known father’s last name is a significant step for her as she asserts her individuality.

Following in Her Sister’s Footsteps

Shiloh isn’t the first Jolie-Pitt child to make a name change. Her younger sister, Vivienne, recently co-produced the Broadway production of The Outsiders alongside her famous mom. In the credits, she was listed as “Vivienne Jolie.” Similarly, their sister Zahara introduced herself as “Zahara Marley Jolie” during an Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority event at Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia.

A History of Name Changes

Angelina Jolie herself went through a name change earlier in her life. Originally born Angelina Jolie Voight, she petitioned the court to legally drop her father’s last name, Voight, following a long estrangement. Her request was granted in 2002. Now, Shiloh follows in her mother’s footsteps, seeking to define her identity independently of her famous parents.

Shiloh’s Aspirations

Sources close to Shiloh reveal that she is an exceptionally talented dancer who relies on hard work and dedication rather than her famous name to achieve her goals. As she steps into adulthood, Shiloh is making her own choices and asserting her individuality. Her decision to drop her father’s last name reflects her desire to create her own path in the spotlight.

In summary, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt’s legal name change marks a significant moment in her journey toward independence and self-discovery. As she moves away from her well-known father’s name, she embraces her unique identity as "Shiloh Jolie."

Remember, life is full of twists and turns, and sometimes even famous names can’t define who we truly are. 🌟
