Shiloh Jolie-Pitt considers changing her famous last name: How are officials responding?

In a surprising twist, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has opted to remove her well-known father’s surname, causing a stir in Hollywood and beyond. The highly awaited court session set for Monday got delayed due to a technical issue, keeping everyone on edge for the final outcome.

The requested name alteration for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter faced a setback as the court failed to complete the necessary background check accurately, as per a source disclosed to Page Six.

Shiloh’s attorney, Peter Levine, verified the postponement, mentioning, “Unfortunately, the court was unable to complete the background check ahead of today’s hearing, so the hearing was rescheduled for August 19.”

“This is routine,” added Levine. “Anyone requesting a name change must undergo a background check conducted by the court clerk, and due to an administrative mistake, Shiloh’s hearing has been postponed to a later date.”

Brad expresses dissatisfaction with his daughter’s choice

The 18-year-old, who recently advertised her intention in the Los Angeles Times, has been transparent about her decision. According to legal documents, she declared dropping “Pitt” from her last name, altering it from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie. The announcement was published in the newspaper on June 17, June 24, July 1, and July 8.

Shiloh formally sought to exclude “Pitt” on her 18th birthday in May, even footing the bill for her own legal representation for the process. This bold move comes amidst her parents’ lengthy and contentious separation. A source informed People that the “Ocean’s 11” actor Brad Pitt was “informed and distressed” about the name alteration.

Shiloh has fulfilled all legal prerequisites

According to California regulations, individuals desiring a name change must publicize their request in a widely circulated newspaper. Shiloh’s decision to publicly declare her name modification has attracted attention, with reports suggesting that the other children of the former couple have also omitted the “Pitt” surname in public appearances and school events.

As the rescheduled hearing date draws near, all eyes are on Shiloh and her next steps. The world eagerly anticipates the final decision, which could signify a significant moment in the ongoing Jolie-Pitt narrative. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story!
