Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt, the youngest daughter of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, has initiated legal proceedings to remove her father’s surname from her legal name. The 18-year-old has filed a petition with the Los Angeles Superior Court seeking to change her name from Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt to Vivienne Marcheline Jolie. According to court documents obtained by the Daily Mail, the stated reason for the name modification is “personal.” A formal court hearing concerning this request is set for November 2.
This filing represents the most recent action in Vivienne’s efforts to formally separate her name from the Pitt lineage. The name change follows previous public instances of Vivienne taking steps to distance herself from the Pitt surname. Notably, in May 2024, she garnered media attention after removing her father’s surname from her participation in the Broadway production The Outsider.
The ongoing legal process highlights Vivienne’s desire to alter her identity marker. While her mother, Angelina Jolie, remains a prominent figure in her own right, this action specifically targets the removal of the Pitt name. The court will determine the legality of the requested change, which aims to simplify her legal identity by removing the paternal surname.
