Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter Shiloh is going by a new professional moniker.
Shiloh, 19, appeared at the launch of Isabel Marant’s capsule collection with Net-A-Porter on Thursday, May 29, in Los Angeles. According to a press release obtained by Page Six from the event, Shiloh was listed as “Shi Joli.” The name is a shortened version of her legal name that pays homage to her mother.
At the event, Shi was credited as a choreographer for an original dance number. The routine was performed by Keoni Rose and Tako Suzuki to singer-songwriter Luella’s new song “Naïve.” Alison Brie, January Jones, Rachel Bilson and more stars were in attendance for the event.
Shi’s new moniker comes nearly one year after she filed paperwork to drop her dad’s last name and legally go by Shiloh Jolie. In May 2024, Shi made the legal request on her 18th birthday. A source told Us Weekly at the time that Shi “hired her own lawyer and paid for it herself.”

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter Shiloh’s request to drop her father’s last name has been officially granted, Us Weekly can confirm. TMZ was first to report the news on Monday, August 19, revealing that there was no “formal” court hearing and the 18-year-old’s petition was granted. Her surname is officially just Jolie.

In August 2024, Us confirmed that Shi’s name change request was granted. (Her full name was previously Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt.)
In addition to Shi, Pitt, 61, and Angelina, 49, share Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16. Shi isn’t the only one of her siblings to drop Pitt as a surname. Zahara publicly introduced herself using only her mother’s last name when she joined the sorority Alpha Kappa Alpha at Spelman College.
“My name is Zahara Marley Jolie,” she said in a video shared by Essence in November 2023. “Coming all the way from the Golden State in the city that is full of angels, Los Angeles, California. … I am this line’s No. 7.”
In May 2024, Us confirmed that Vivienne was credited as Vivienne Jolie in the Playbill for the Broadway play The Outsiders. Vivienne worked as a production assistant on the show, which was produced by Angelina. It is unclear whether Zahara or Vivienne legally changed their names.
Shi, Zahara and Vivienne’s new moniker debuts came amid their parents’ divorce. Pitt and Angelina, who tied the knot in August 2014 after nearly a decade together, split in September 2016. Three years after the actress filed for divorce, the pair were declared legally single.

In December 2024, the exes officially finalized their divorce following an eight-year court battle.
“More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family,” Jolie’s lawyer James Simon told Us in a statement. “This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.”
Last month, Pitt broke his silence on the split. When asked if he felt “relief” now that his split drama has come to an end during a May interview with GQ, Pitt responded, “No. I don’t think it was that major of a thing. Just something coming to fruition. Legally.”
