Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ Daughter Takes a New Step With a Personal Name Change.

Growing up as the daughter of two internationally recognized actors meant that Suri Cruise spent much of her childhood in the public eye. From the moment she was born in April 2006, media attention surrounded nearly every stage of her early life.
