Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt, the 21-year-old daughter of actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, has filed a petition in Los Angeles Superior Court to change her name to Zahara Marley Jolie, according to court records reviewed by multiple news outlets.
The petition, filed on May 27, 2026, requests to remove 'Pitt' from her surname. The filing does not provide a specific reason for the name change, but it is the latest development in the family's ongoing legal matters following Jolie and Pitt's divorce.
Zahara, who was adopted by Jolie from Ethiopia in 2005 and later adopted by Pitt in 2006, is currently a student at Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia. She has been seen at public events without Pitt in recent years.
Neither Jolie nor Pitt has publicly commented on the filing. A hearing on the name change request is scheduled for later this year.
