Shiloh legally drops father’s last name

Shiloh was born Shiloh Nouvel Jollie-Pitt but will now legally go by Shiloh Jolie as her petition to drop her father’s last name got approved. She first filed the petition in May when she turned 18 years old. The petition was approved on Monday, August 19 which was a rescheduled date after a complete background check.

Shiloh’s lawyer, Peter Levine, at that time, informed, “Everyone undergoing a name-change request needs to have a background check conducted by the court clerk, and because of clerical error, Shiloh's hearing has been continued to a new date.”After filing the petition in May, the process continued in July according to California’s name change which required her to publish an announcement in the Los Angeles Times stating she was changing her name to Shiloh Jolie.
