Tom Cruise Makes Katie Holmes Change her Name
Usually when a couple has been dating for a while and then decides to get married the woman will only change her last name if at all. In Hollywood though, it’s rare to see a celebrity change their name because it’s their brand. That’s how they’re recognized. Well, the all-powerful Tom Cruise has managed to make Katie Holmes change her first name and they aren’t even married yet. I bet once they do get married she’ll be Kate Cruise. That totally doesn’t roll off the tongue. Grrr. Katie Holmes has been a famous name for a really long time and that’s how she’s recognized. I think Kate Holmes just sounds dumb, but not as dumb as Kate Cruise. Oy. Poor Katie:
Fiance Tom Cruise seems to have been trying to push it for a while now but according to various sources about the place, Katie Holmes is set to officially change her name to Kate.
Tom has reportedly said: “Katie is a young girl’s name.Her name is Kate now she’s a child-bearing woman.”
It’s not been mentioned whether she’ll take Tom’s surname too, when they marry later this year. via fametastic

I think KATIE HOLMES should be allowed custody of her child, and she should be able tto make her own decisions, on her religion, name and her baby. After all SHE is A CHILD-BEARING WOMAN. She is the one who went thruough painful birth, Not tom. I think she should just take her baby and leave him. He is way to controling.

I bet Katie didn’t even have a say in their baby’s name! Tom is a major control freak! Why doesn’t he change his name to “Thomas”, befitting of a father?

I guess we the public understand why Nicole left him. He does seem very controlling now. I thought at first this was a publicity stunt, which it still could be, but it is going on for an awfully long time and it making him look more and more ridiculous.

First of all, this Tomkat shit is going way out of control. He’s a control freak true enough, but what is she? A damn fool that’s what she is. Tom’s the type of man, every mother warns their daughters about. He’s controlled, hynotized, brainwashed, dick-whipped and knocked-up this poor weak-minded groupie. And who the hell does he think he is telling her to change her name to Kate? So what if he’s Tom Cruise, he’s an asshole. You won’t catch me sitting up in the theater watching Mission anytime soon. Like Autumn said, she’s needs to take the baby and leave his looney tune ass. A bitch and then has her working out and shit, to prepare for their wedding in the summer. Fuck Tom, Fuck Kate, and fuck Hollywood. They ain’t gonna last long, I feel for Suri and i’m out. PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Katie’s real name is Kate! So she’s not changing anything. Kate is her birth name and Katie was used as a stage name to probably make her more marketable to the teenage set during dawson’s creek. I think Kate Cruise sounds great personally. More power to her.

Lindsay, that’s nice and all, but Tom is a control freak. Don’t feed into this shit, most older men when they get with a younger woman wants to control everything. Think about it!!!

I think that Katie fell head over heels for the “Tom Cruise” that I personally grew up to hear everyone talking about. How “great” he looked and that he was this dreamy guy. What young girl would not have jumped at the chance to be with TOM CRUISE? Not too many. But then because of publicity and everything things went too far. She fell in love with the “Tom Cruise” that we all new from outside of the box. Now that she has his child, she is stuck. Affraid that Toms money might by his was into custody of their child and fears of a broken family. From what I can tell of Katie ahe is very family oriented so she is going to do what she can to try to make the relationship work. Not neccessarily realizing that she is changing who she is to satisfy who he wants her to be. I dont think that anyone should change who they are just to be with someone and I really think that someone who wants a person to make changes like their name or even the way the look is just trying to creat what it is they are looking for and not what they have right in front of them. Katie has been Katie. Why all of the sudden change because of a comment by Tom Cruise? And why change now? Why not before Cruise? As far as last names, thats a brides choice. Its not mandatory. Most women do it to satisfy their wants. Not their husbands. Some grooms have been known to change their names. Its personal choice. NOT CONTROL

Well I hate to come to any sort of defense of Tom’s (because I just can’t stand the way he controls Katie) but Katie was actually listed as “Kate Holmes” in her senior yearbook. However, those of us who know her (I used to work with her) know her as Katie, as does the rest of the world, and since it’s been ages since she’s even used Kate, why does HE insist that people called her Kate now? Sure, I get called Kate occasionally too, but it’s more of a nickname, now a name change. I stand by my Katieness, as should she! (and since she is a “child-bearing woman” now, maybe she oughta stop letting herself be controlled so much!!) Just waiting fo him to start up the whole Kate campaign again, and start correcting reporters who call her Katie Holmes, that would be a hoot to see the media frenzy that surrounds that!

Lindsay, her birth name is Kathleen (or perhaps Kathryn, but I think that’s her mom’s name, I always get confused which is which), not Kate - Kate’s a nickname, just like Katie.
