The teenager was officially granted the name change nearly three months after initially filing to drop "Pitt" from her last name on her birthday back in May, when she became a legal adult, a news publication confirmed.
The update comes after Shiloh faced a setback last month, when her petition to change her name was postponed due to an issue behind the scenes.
An insider said Brad Pitt was 'upset' by his daughter making the name change. mega
"Unfortunately, the court was unable to complete the background check ahead of today's hearing, so the hearing was rescheduled for August 19," Shiloh's lawyer Peter Levine said in a statement obtained by the news publication in July.
