The removal of "Pitt" from Vivienne's name in a playbill was reportedly upon her request.

In late May, the 15-year-old daughter of ex-couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt asked to drop her dad's surname from the playbill of the musical produced by her mom. At the time, instead of being listed as Vivienne Jolie-Pitt under the Producer Assistant role of "The Outsiders," her name was only listed as Vivienne Jolie.

In a recent update from a source, the twin of Knox allegedly asked to drop her dad's surname from the musical's poster, ET Online reported.

Vivienne's personal decision to remove "Pitt" from her name came after her older sister Zahara introduced herself as the new member of the Mu Pi chapter of Spelman's College Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority in November 2023.

At the time, Zahara introduced herself only as "Zahara Marley Jolie," dropping their father's last name.

Recently, their other sister, Shiloh, reportedly petitioned to eliminate "Pitt" from her surname legally and go by a new name, "Shiloh Jolie."

"Shiloh hired her own lawyer and paid for it herself, so Angie doesn't know and can't speak for it," claimed a source.

Before this, the 18-year-old subtly introduced herself as Shi Jolie on her private Instagram account.

The name changes from Vivienne, Zahara and Shiloh come amid the reported strain in the "Fight Club" actor's relationship with his children following the "Maleficent" star's divorce filing in 2016 and pursuit of sole physical custody.

A few days ago, an unnamed source reported that the 60-year-old actor knows about the name changes and is "in pain" over his relationship with his six children with Jolie: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox.

"He's aware and upset that Shiloh dropped his last name. He's never felt more joy than when she was born. He always wanted a daughter," said the source.

"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."
