Shax Jolie-Pitt? Shiloh wants to be just like her brothers in every way — including her name!
She prefers roughhousing and swords to dolls, but Shiloh Jolie-Pitt is taking her tomboy ways to a new extreme! According to In Touch, she’s asking Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to call her Shax to make her name more like her brothers: Maddox, Pax and Knox. “Shiloh is a very cool kid,” a childhood family friend of Angelina’s explained. “She is independent and smart and knows what she wants — even though she’s a little girl.”
So is the family going along with the 5-year-old’s name change? Yes!
The family friend says Angelina isn’t surprised at all. “Angelina was also a tomboy,” the friend revealed. “She changed her name to Vince when she was the same age.”
BFFs — do YOU like the name Shax? Would you let your kid change their name?
More Jolie-Pitts!

Just what we need, to be more close-minded. Let’s all become fans of child abuse so they can fit into cultural norms! She will never have to worry about impressing you, she has more money than you will make in your entire lifetime. Quit hatin’.

Why? What is wrong with being a tomboy? Nothing. I would hate to have you as a mother. Forcing me to be something I am not…she should be able to dress however she wants. She should be able to play with whatever toy she wants, whether it be a doll or a monster truck. There is nothing wrong with it. She needs to know that it is okay to be herself and I applaud Brad and Angelina for letting Shiloh be herself.

And what’s wrong with Ellen? The fact she’s gay, unique, funny? Nothing wrong with being gay and/or androgynous.

I think whatever makes her happy. I have four sons and a daughter and she is diffently a little Tom boy! She wants to be just like them! It’s a phase and it’s not hurting anyone. Shiloh is beautiful healthy smart little girl who will grow up to be just as beautiful as her mom.

Leave this little girl alone, you should be ashamed, exploiting a baby like that!! First of all, on the outside chance a cruel craptastic tabloid story is even true, how is ‘shax,’ a name no one has ever heard before, let alone ascribed gender to, a “tomboy name?”. Answer: it is not. You’re just labeling and putting this little girl under a massive public microscope so people can be critical of her or her parents. It’s child abuse. She’s 5! Leave her the eff alone, sickos!

IF the story is true, it’s a “tomboy name” because Shiloh obviously acquaints the “-x” ending with a boy’s name, a la her three brothers, Maddox, Pax and Knox.
This story may be craptastic, but it hardly seems cruel.

You’re an idiot. She could equate the ‘x,’ ending with siblings she looks up to and wants to emulate, the name ‘shax’ is not a ‘Tomboy’ name. It ends in x, like her brothers. If her brothers were named, Andy and randy, and she demanded to be called ‘shandy,’ that wouldn’t be a tomboy name either Einstein, ya dumb fck. Quit obsessing over and stalking 5 yr olds you creep.

What is the “right” way? Telling her she’s wrong, forcing her into roles she doesn’t like, identify with, or feel comfortable in? You know what that does? It tells her, teaches her, that she’s stupid, incapable of decision-making, it’s abusive behavior. Bravo to her parents for loving her as she is instead of abusing her and doing it the “right” way.

i honestly think that you should let your child express themselves. But allowing her to change her name for it to be more tomboyish is just to far. This may just be a stage and her parents handling this the right way if you ask me.

You do realize that the source is a tabloid that has no credibility especially when it comes to the Jolie-Pitts. Nobody knows this family but are always quick to call Angelina and Brad horrible parents and the children spoiled brats.
