Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter Vivienne is granted a legal name change dropping her father’s surname, according to multiple outlets. The reporting says Vivienne’s approved change moves her from “Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt” to “Vivienne Marcheline Jolie,” aligning her legal name with the identity she has been using publicly since 2024.
Several sources link the update to ongoing changes made by the couple’s children during and after their lengthy divorce, which is reported as concluding in December 2024. One outlet says Vivienne becomes the fourth Jolie-Pitt child to make a similar legal name adjustment, while also noting that at least one sibling, Pax, is reported to keep the Jolie-Pitt name. Another outlet frames the development as a judge granting the requested petition, citing legal documentation.
Overall, the outlets agree on the core point: a California judge approves Vivienne’s surname change. Differences mainly involve how much family context each outlet adds, including which siblings have changed names and the stage of the parents’ divorce.
