Shiloh Jolie is no longer a Pitt after her request to drop her father’s last name was officially granted.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter filed paperwork in a Los Angeles court to drop her father’s surname from her legal name on her 18th birthday in May.
According to court documents obtained by Page Six, a judge signed off on the name change—from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie—on Monday morning.
As part of the legal process to change a name in the state of California, the petition must be announced in a newspaper. Shiloh published her announcement in the Los Angeles Times, with ads running on June 17, June 24, July 1, and July 8.
Previously, it was revealed that Shiloh used her own money and hired an attorney to file the petition on her own, according to a new report from E! News.
“Shiloh hired her own lawyer and paid for it herself, so Angie doesn’t know and can’t speak for it,” an insider told Entertainment Tonight.
A hearing for Shiloh’s name change was initially scheduled to take place in July but had to be postponed because the court didn’t complete a necessary background check on time.
