Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise’s daughter, Suri Cruise, quietly changed her name upon turning 18.
Renouncing the last name of her father’s, she now goes by Suri Noelle, adopting her mother’s middle name, Kate Noelle Holmes. The girl’s decision became widely known during her performance in the New York musical “Head Over Heels,” where she was listed under her new name. Suri’s choice signifies her independence and a step towards adulthood.
In New York City, Suri was observed confidently walking with headphones, symbolizing her newfound autonomy.
The name change diverges from her birth certificate, which listed her as Suri Cruise, filed 20 days after her birth on April 18, 2006.
Tony Ortega, scientology researcher, remarked, “Suri will now be free to talk if she wants to,” highlighting her ability to discuss personal matters like her relationship with her father. This strained relationship, marked by long separations, has been public knowledge for years.
As Suri is fully grown, she can shape her own path, supported by her mother, Katie, who has always prioritized her daughter’s well-being.
