Inside Angelina Jolie’s Daughter Vivienne’s Bold Legal Move That Could Shake Up Brad Pitt’s World Forever
And although the divorce has been finalized, the former couple remain embroiled in a separate legal dispute over their French winery, Château Miraval.
Moreover, Vivienne’s filing is not an isolated decision. Instead, she is the latest member of the Jolie-Pitt family to formally, or publicly, drop her father’s last name after reaching adulthood.
The first to do so was Shiloh, who filed a petition on her 18th birthday in May 2024.
Previously, a source close to Pitt accused Jolie of publicizing “successful alienation of their children from the other parent”

Three months later, a judge officially approved the request, legally changing her name from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.
In May this year, Maddox also petitioned the court to legally change his name to Maddox Chivan Jolie, with his hearing scheduled for September 14.
Meanwhile, Zahara filed paperwork in June to legally update her name to Zahara Marley Jolie.
Although Knox has not publicly filed legal documents, he reportedly listed “Knox Jolie” on his high school diploma, further fueling speculation that he, too, has chosen to distance himself from the Pitt surname.

While none of the siblings have publicly detailed their reasons beyond what appears in the court documents, each has chosen to make the change after becoming legally old enough to do so independently.
Addressing the growing list of children distancing themselves from Brad, a source close to the Oscar winner previously told People, “It’s sad to see someone repeatedly publicize their successful alienation of their children from the other parent.”
The source’s remarks quickly sparked discussion online, with many arguing that the now-adult children are simply exercising their own choices rather than being influenced by either parent.
“At this rate, Pitt isn’t a family name anymore, it’s a subscription everyone keeps canceling,” one netizen quipped
