The outlet noted there was no formal hearing, adding that the petition was simply granted for Angelina Jolie ’s daughter.
The dancer, who filed her petition on her 18th birthday in order to distance herself from Brad, 60, used her own money to pay for her attorney.

“Shiloh hired her own lawyer and paid for it herself, so Angie doesn’t know and can’t speak for it,” an insider told Entertainment Tonight .
Shiloh is joining her siblings, who have also continued to remove themselves from the “Bullet Train” star’s life in recent years.
Brad and Angelina, 49, share three biological children, including Shiloh and 16-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox. The former couple also adopted three children: sons Maddox, 23, and Pax, 20, and daughter Zahara, 19.

Earlier this year, Vivienne was listed as “Vivienne Jolie” in the Playbill for the Broadway production of “The Outsiders,” which she co-produced with her mom.
Meanwhile, Zahara was the first of the children to make the change last November. After becoming an Alpha Kappa Alpha, she introduced herself as “Zahara Marley Jolie” during an induction ceremony at Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia.

As per the legal process to change a name in California, Shiloh had to announce the petition in a newspaper. She published her announcement in the Los Angeles Times , which ran the ad on June 17, June 24, July 1 and July 8, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.

Shiloh was originally set to appear before a judge for a July hearing, but it was postponed because the court was unable to complete the necessary background check on time.
However, there was nothing out of the ordinary with those happenings.
“This is normal,” Shiloh’s attorney, Peter Levine, told Page Six in a statement last month. “Everyone undergoing a name-change request needs to have a background check conducted by the court clerk, and because of clerical error, Shiloh’s hearing has been continued to a new date.”

Brad and Angelina first began dating after starring in the 2005 action comedy “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.”
Brad and Angelina officially tied the knot in 2014 before splitting in 2016. The “Eternals” actress filed for divorce following an altercation on a plane with the kids present.
