Suri, 20, is currently in her third year at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She previously graduated highschool under the name “Suri Noelle” – her mother’s middle name – in 2024, a change that has been made legal according to Pennsylvania voter records viewed by Page Six and Entertainment Weekly.
Holmes and Cruise were married in 2006 and Suri was born on 18 April 2006. She made her public debut in a lengthy Vanity Fair article featuring photos by Annie Leibovitz. The couple divorced in 2012.
Suri and her father are believed to be estranged. The Hollywood star and his daughter have not been seen in public since 2012, and Cruise did not attend her LaGuardia High School graduation.
The reports of Suri’s name change follow a similar action by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s youngest daughter Vivienne, who made a formal request to drop her father’s surname.
Vivienne filed the paperwork in Los Angeles County Superior Court last week, on 12 July (her 18th birthday), to make her legal name Vivienne Marcheline Jolie.
Divorced celebrity couple Jolie and Pitt share six children together, with Shiloh, 20, being the first of the siblings to be granted a name change in 2024 – now going by the name Shiloh Jolie. People previously reported that the couple’s daughter Zahara, 21, made the same filing following her brother Maddox, 24, also filing to remove “Pitt” from his surname.
In the case of Jolie and Pitt’s children, the family divide is believed to have come following a 2016 airplane altercation in which Pitt allegedly got into a heated argument with his family. An FBI investigation into child abuse allegations after the incident cleared Pitt of all charges.
