Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's son, Knox, has reportedly become the latest of their children to drop "Pitt" from their last name.
The teenager, who will turn 18 on July 12, has followed in his siblings' footsteps and removed his father's surname from his high school diploma after graduating from Fusion Academy in Los Angeles earlier this month.
Instead of being listed as "Knox Jolie Pitt" on his official certificate, he was referred to as "Knox Jolie," according to Page Six.
While it's unclear if Knox has legally changed his last name, the move comes after three of his siblings officially filed to have "Pitt" removed from their surname.
Brad and Angelina tied the knot in 2014 and split two years later. The former couple's divorce was finalized in December 2024 following a long legal battle over shared assets and claims of abuse. They share six children. Maddox, 24, Pax, 22, Zahara, 21, Shiloh, 20, and twins, Knox and Vivienne, 17.
On April 28, Zahara filed a petition to have "Pitt" removed from her last name in the Superior Court of California.
The 21-year-old hinted that the name change was coming as far back as August 2024, when she introduced herself as "Zahara Marley Jolie" while becoming a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. at Spelman College.

Zahara's decision came just days after her brother, Maddox Jolie, also filed to legally remove Brad's last name. The 24-year-old had his name change finalized in May. He now goes by Maddox Chivan Jolie and listed the reason for his name change as "personal."

Meanwhile, in May 2024, Vivienne was credited as "Vivienne Jolie" on the playbill for The Outsiders, which she worked on with her mother. Brad and Angelina's other son, Pax, has yet to indicate whether he has dropped "Pitt" from his surname.

What followed was a bitter custody battle between the two, leading to eight years of divorce proceedings that were finalized in December 2024.
During an interview with GQ, Brad was questioned about his marriage to Angelina. When asked if he felt any relief from the conclusion, he responded: "No, I don't think it was that major of a thing. Just something coming to fruition. Legally."
