The request was granted by a judge in August 2024, prompting Shiloh to be legally known as Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.
It's believed that she did not seek any help from the 'Maleficent' actress throughout the process.
'Shiloh hired her own lawyer and paid for it herself, so Angie doesn't know and can't speak for it,' a source told Entertainment Tonight at the time.
In July, Shiloh's attorney Peter Levine told Page Six in part that she made 'an independent and significant decision following painful events' in dropping 'Pitt' from her last name.

Shiloh isn't the only child in her family that has decided to sever ties with the 'Fight Club' actor through a legal name change.
In the lead-up to Pitt and Jolie finalizing their divorce in December 2024 following a messy 8-year battle, Zahara Jolie-Pitt, 20, also decided to switch-up her moniker.
At Spelman College's Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority induction ceremony in 2023, she proudly announced her name — 'Zahara Marley Jolie' — as captured in a video that later spread across social media.
Eagle-eyed fans also noticed Shiloh's sister Vivienne dropped her dad's surname in 'The Outsiders' Playbill in May 2024.

The dancer — who helped mom Jolie produce the Broadway play — was reportedly listed as 'Vivienne Jolie' in the magazine for theatergoers.
What's more, a source claimed to Us Weekly in 2021 that Pitt and Jolie's eldest child, Maddox, 'doesn't use Pitt as his last name on documents that aren't legal and instead uses Jolie.'

The 'Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood' actor, 61, and Jolie, 49, welcomed Shiloh in May 2006, and her twin siblings Knox and Vivienne in July 2008.
Pitt officially adopted Jolie's adopted children Maddox, 23, and Zahara in 2005, and Pax, 21, in 2006.

The 'World War Z' actor was said to have been 'aware and upset' that Shiloh had legally dropped his last name.

'He's never felt more joy than when she was born,' a source told People in 2024. 'He always wanted a daughter.'
'The reminders that he's lost his children is, of course, not easy for Brad. He loves his children and misses them. It's very sad.'
Last month, Pitt broke his silence on finalizing his divorce from Jolie.

'No, I don't think it was that major of a thing,' the 'F1' star told GQ. 'Just something coming to fruition. Legally.'
Pitt also acknowledged that his 'personal life is always in the news.'
'It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way,' he said.

'It's been an annoyance I've had to always deal with in different degrees, large and small, as I do the things I really want to do,' Pitt continued of his celebrity status. 'So, it's always been this kind of nagging time suck or waste of time, if you let it be that, I don't know. I don't know.
'Mostly I feel pretty … My life is fairly contained,' he shared. 'It feels pretty warm and secure with my friends, with my loves, with my fam, with my knowledge of who I am, that, you know, it's like this fly buzzing around a little bit.'

Steelers CB Beanie Bishop's viral Pitt logo stomp blasted by GM Doug Whaley
Steelers CB Beanie Bishop's viral Pitt logo stomp blasted by GM Doug Whaley Beanie Bishop Jr.'s viral disrespect of Pitt football continues to make headlines — as new information on the situation has been brought to light. On 93.7 The Fan Morning Show, it was revealed that the Steelers were invited into the Pitt Panthers' locker room — where Bishop would commit his stomp and cleat drag on their logo— making the situation that much worse. A special guest on The Fan Morning Show — acting Pitt GM Doug Whaley — made it clear he was less than thrilled with Bishop's actions: "When you get invited to someone's house, and when you're in their locker room house, as sacred as it is — that locker room, you have to give it mad respect. And for [the Steelers] to be invited guests over — and for him to do this — it shows how unprofessional, but to the core, the type of person he is. There's lines you just don't cross. It's a fun rivalry, and we say 'we hate each other,' but we hate each other on the field. We respect the rivalry off the field." Whaley also previously worked as the Steelers' pro personal creator from 2000 to 2010 — which adds an extra layer of intrigue to his comments. Additionally, Bishop was unapologetic about his actions or the potential backlash, claiming that he only cared about the reactions of Steelers fans and WVU fans.

A-ha's Morten Harket reveals he has Parkinson's disease
Morten Harket, frontman of celebrated Norwegian synth-pop band A-Ha, has revealed that he has Parkinson's disease. The news was shared by the band in a statement on their website which read: 'This isn't the sort of news anyone wants to deliver to the world, but here it is – Morten has Parkinson's disease.' The pop icon, aged 65, shared further details of the diagnosis in the post, and explained why he has sharing the news after previously keeping details on his health 'strictly private'. 'I've got no problem accepting the diagnosis. With time I've taken to heart my 94-year-old father's attitude to the way the organism gradually surrenders: 'I use whatever works',' he wrote. 'Part of me wanted to reveal it. Like I said, acknowledging the diagnosis wasn't a problem for me; it's my need for peace and quiet to work that has been stopping me. I'm trying the best I can to prevent my entire system from going into decline.' Harket said he underwent neurological procedures to have electrodes implanted inside his brain last year and that this had reduced the symptoms. He continued: 'It's a difficult balancing act between taking the medication and managing its side effects. There's so much to weigh up when you're emulating the masterful way the body handles every complex movement, or social matters and invitations, or day-to-day life in general.' Regarding whether Harket can still perform and sing, he wrote: 'I don't really know. I don't feel like singing, and for me that's a sign. I'm broadminded in terms of what I think works; I don't expect to be able to achieve full technical control. The question is whether I can express myself with my voice. As things stand now, that's out of the question. But I don't know whether I'll be able to manage it at some point in the future.' Parkinson's is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the world, behind Alzheimer's. It causes deterioration in the brain's nervous system, leading to tremors and other symptoms that can become progressively worse over time. Common symptoms include involuntary shaking, slower-than-usual movement, and stiffness in the muscles. The disease can be treated with surgery and medication, but there is no cure. It is not known what exactly leads to people developing the condition. Other famous faces who have had Parkinson's diagnoses include Back To The Future actor Michael J. Fox, heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne and Scottish comedian Billy Connolly.
