Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter, Shiloh, made an unexpected appearance in Los Angeles last week where she revealed her brand-new name.
On Thursday (29 May), the 19-year-old - who is just one of the former married couple's six children; Maddox, 23, Zahara, 20, Pax, 21, Knox, 16, and Vivienne, 16 - appeared at a dinner that celebrated the launch of fashion designer Isabel Marant's collection with Net-A-Porter.
The likes of Shiloh was credited as a choreographer for musician Luella, who performed her newly-released single 'Naïve' at the dinner with two dancers, Keoni Rose and Tako Suzuko, as per a press release about the event which was sent to Page Six.
However, she was listed as 'Shi Joli' - a moniker that pays homage to her Girl, Interrupted star mother while shortening her legal name.

She, like many of her siblings, appears to have totally dropped the 'Pitt' from her previously double-barrelled name.
The news of Shiloh's new artist moniker comes after a legal ruling which took place year.
The ruling in question stated that the teen, who was born Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, could now legally go by Shiloh Jolie, PEOPLE reported at the time.
Shiloh first began making steps to change her name last May, as per a statement released at the time by her lawyer Peter Levine.
Levine told the outlet: "The media should be more careful in their reporting, especially when covering a young adult who has made an independent and significant decision following painful events, and is merely following legal process."
He added: "As Shiloh's attorney, I am required to publish a legal notice because the law in California requires that of anyone who wants to change their name.
"That legal notice was published in The Los Angeles Times, as is required."
The name changes follow a lawsuit filed by Angelina against her ex-husband Brad in 2022 which claimed he had been abusive towards her and their children during a flight in 2016.
The filing alleged that Brad had 'choked' one of their six children while on the private jet, and 'struck another in the face'.
It went on to allege Brad had 'grabbed' Angelina 'by the head', and 'poured beer and red wine on the children'.
Brad's legal team have always maintained his innocence.
Brad and Angelina went public with their relationship in 2006, got married in 2014 and split in 2016 due to 'irreconcilable differences'.
