According to Hello!, Suri Cruise has not been using Tom Cruise’s last name. Since becoming of legal age in the USA, after turning 18 on April 18, 2024, Suri appears to have taken Katie Holmes’ middle name as her new family moniker — on at least one occasion, anyway. Suri’s original birth certificate, filed on May 5, 2006, by an unnamed friend of her parents, states she was born at St. John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, to Thomas Cruise and Katie Noelle Holmes. Her full name is listed as “Suri Cruise.”
However, when she recently appeared as Philoclea in her school’s performance of the musical comedy “Head Over Heels,” she dropped the name Cruise. She was listed on the playbill as Suri Noelle, Holmes’ middle name. The media has not uncovered an official, legal change of name filing, at least not yet, so it may just be a case of Suri wanting to avoid the attention caused by her father’s and mother’s famous last names.
Still, multiple reports have surfaced that Tom and Suri are completely estranged, with the Daily Mail alleging in April 2024 that their already fractured relationship had now become irreparable. “Suri will not have any contact with her father, despite being 18, and even if he called, she would not answer,” a source claimed.
