Shiloh Jolie-Pitt is the child of Hollywood actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Despite being a minor, Shiloh has become a celebrity due to their famous parents. Shiloh has not been involved in any major works, but has made public appearances with their family. They have also been involved in some humanitarian efforts with their parents.

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt’s name was chosen by their parents, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. According to Jolie, Shiloh means “the one who is sent from God” in Hebrew. Their first name, Shiloh, was also the location of a significant Civil War battle in the United States. The couple chose to give their child a unisex name as they felt it was fitting for Shiloh’s tomboyish nature.

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt was born in Swakopmund, Namibia and spent the first few months of their life in Africa. It is reported that their birth was heralded with international press coverage and they became the most expensive celebrity baby photo ever sold, at the time, with the rights being purchased for over $4 million. The proceeds from the sale were donated to charities benefiting underprivileged children globally.
