Angelina requests name change for Pax

Angelina Jolie filed a petition in LA Superior Court last week to formally change her newly adopted son's name to Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt. Jolie states in court documents that she is "the sole adoptive parent of the child" and is requesting the name change "in order that her child's last name will incorporate and be combined with the last name of her partner and be the same as that of her other children." A hearing will be held at the end of May in Santa Monica to finalize the details. Jolie made a similar request for her other adopted children, Maddox and Zahara, to officially be named Jolie-Pitt in January 2006.
