Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's kids Zahara and Maddox took out newspaper ads as the next step in officially dropping their father's last name.

According to court documents obtained by Page Six, both siblings published notices of their name change petitions in the Los Angeles Daily Journal for four consecutive weeks, a requirement under California law before a judge can approve the requests.

The records show that 21-year-old Zahara's petition was published on June 16, June 23, June 30, and July 7. The notices also state that anyone who wants to challenge the name change must file a written objection before the final hearing.
