Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter, Shiloh, requested to drop “Pitt” from her surname on her 18th birthday, following her sister Vivienne’s name change. Vivienne, credited as Vivienne Jolie, uses “Jolie” in the Broadway Playbill. The couple’s other children also do not use the Pitt name. The couple’s divorce in 2016 was marked by controversies and adoptions. Shiloh, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter, asked to remove “Pitt” from her surname on her 18th birthday, mirroring her sister Vivienne’s decision. Vivienne is credited as Vivienne Jolie in the Broadway Playbill, opting for “Jolie.” Their other children also refrain from using the Pitt name. The couple’s tumultuous 2016 divorce involved disputes and adoptions.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter Shiloh filed a legal request to have the “Pitt” dropped from her surname, per TMZ.
Shiloh filed the petition on her 18th birthday, May 27, the outlet noted. The teen requested the name change just days after it was publicized that her sister, Vivienne, 15, had stopped using “Pitt” as part of her surname as well.
Vivienne, who is listed as a producer assistant for the Broadway musical “The Outsiders,” uses the last name “Jolie” in the Playbill.
Several outlets reported that the former couple’s other children also aren’t using the last name Pitt. Shiloh’s petition is the first legal document filed to formally request the change.
Pitt, 60, and Jolie, 48, began a contentious divorce in 2016 after two years of marriage and 12 years together. Jolie had adopted Maddox from Cambodia and Zahara from Ethiopia prior to her relationship with Pitt. He adopted them legally after they got together.
The couple had their first biological child, Shiloh, in 2006. Next they adopted Pax from Vietnam. Finally, Jolie gave birth to twins, Knox and Vivienne, in 2008.
Court filings obtained by The New York Times indicated that Jolie accused Pitt of domestic violence following a private flight from France to Los Angeles in 2016. The filing alleged that Pitt “choked one of the children and struck another in the face” and “grabbed Jolie by the head and shook her.”
It also said the Academy-Award-winning actor “poured beer on Jolie” and “poured beer and red wine on the children.”

Pitt denied any wrongdoing and refuted the allegations.
Pax also allegedly called his adoptive father a “world class a**hole” and “f***ing awful human being” in a Father’s Day post on his private Instagram account in 2020, per The Daily Mail.
“You time and time and again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person,” the social media account holder wrote over a picture of Pitt accepting the Best Supporting Actor Oscar in 2020 for his role in “Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood.”
“You have no consideration or empathy toward your four youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence,” the post said. “You have made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell. You may tell yourself and the world whatever you want, but the truth will come to light someday.”
