Another Jolie-Pitt child drops 'Pitt': Vivienne files legal petition to change her name

Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, one of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's children, has filed a legal petition to remove 'Pitt' from her surname, changing her name to Vivienne Marcheline Jolie. The petition was submitted to the Los Angeles County Superior Court on July 20, with a hearing scheduled for November 2. This follows similar actions by other children, including Shiloh, whose petition was approved in August 2024, and Zahara and Maddox, whose cases are still pending. Vivienne has been using the Jolie surname professionally since at least 2024, as seen in her involvement with the Broadway production 'The Outsiders.' A source close to Angelina Jolie stated that she approaches the situation with compassion rather than anger, emphasizing the need for healing. The source also suggested that greater public sympathy could emerge if the full circumstances were known.
