Suri Cruise, daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, recently changed her name upon turning 18. She renounced her father’s last name and now goes by Suri Noelle, adopting her mother’s middle name, Kate Noelle Holmes.
Her decision became public during her performance in the New York musical Head Over Heels, where she was listed under her new name. This choice symbolizes her independence and marks a significant step into adulthood.
In New York City, Suri was spotted confidently walking with headphones, embodying her newfound autonomy. This name change contrasts with her birth certificate, which lists her as Suri Cruise, filed just 20 days after her birth on April 18, 2006.
Scientology researcher Tony Ortega noted, “Suri will now be free to talk if she wants to,” emphasizing her ability to discuss personal matters, including her relationship with her father. Their strained relationship, characterized by long separations, has been public knowledge for years.
