OlderDestiny Hope Cyrus No Longer
While Miley Cyrus‘ legal name has been Destiny Hope Cyrus, she officially got her name changed last week at a Santa Monica Courthouse.
Miley’s dad Billy Ray told Oprah he had a very special reason for giving her that name. “I had this vision that it was her destiny to bring hope to the world,” Billy Ray says. “And as a baby, she just kept smiling all the time. So her name was Destiny Hope, but I started calling her Smiley. Then as you start talking to a baby, you start dropping the S’s off the front end, and pretty soon Smiley became Miley.”
Lawyer William R. Sobel represented the Hannah Montana star at the Santa Monica Courthouse on Thursday morning, and the change was made official by Supervising Judge Gerald Rosenberg, reported Fox News.
“She was never referred to as Destiny Hope, ever since childhood she has been Miley Ray and the family wanted her common name to be her legal name,” Sobel told the court.

Miley’s awesome =D
i like the name Miley more than Destiny Hope, this is gr8
If you take her “bad” picture and put it next to the picture of a back shot of Vanessa Hodgeson (sp) dress she wore to the premeire for Disney,
there is little difference and Disney is being a hipocrite

what a dumb as* i never heard of a 15 year old changing their name couldnt she at least wait shes worser than lindsay lohan
NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE!!!!!
vanessa is better
She brought MILLIONS of $ to DADDY DEAREST. Now he has dropped his daughter for her brand. The jerk cares more about MONEY than his child. His posing with her and allowing her to pose topless with the satin sheet around her proves he has NO LOVE for his child only for her BRAND. I HOPE her DESTINY is to find someone in her ADULT life that loves her for just being herself. Her father needs a big kick in his rear end.
She gave hope to the world alright, no actually she gave hope to girls her age that posing sexy is alrighties as long as its “artistic”
especially if madonna backs you up….
Disney is a huge hypocrite but would they care, thats like expecting paris hilton disappear… unfortunately both wont happen =(
Miley is on her way to being the next
Lindsey Lohan
Britney Spears
Jamie Spears
Paris Hilton
Nicole Richie e.t.c…..
Her parent seems to care to much about money thats why they really changed her name. Wait untill she gets 18 we will see her really cut loose. This is how Lindsey Lohan got started, I can’t believe Dina Lohan is starting her daughter Ali on the same route. These parents are so into getting the money untill they will not know when they lost control. Soon it will be Madonna’s kid Lourdes, then Becks boys, Britney’s boys, Suri Cruis, Apple & Mose Martin and Angie Jolie’s bunch of kids. You would think these parents would learn but greed steps in. Some how this world of show business is not good for kids to grow up in.
well thats good cuz destiny is a ugly name and miley is very cute

old news..
I think this name change has alot more to do with money than anything else. Their parents are shamefull but I guess it’s the nature of the beast to sell your kids.
Her dad has a cheesy ass excuse for giving her a goddamn awful name
Her “destiny” is to bring hope to all of the horny young guys that she’ll be flashing her kitty by the time she’s 18. The next Lohan for sure.
ilove miley
Jared not only is this old news, it’s boring as hell. What has happened to this place?
i swear this happened ages ago
BORING…
When I read that she wanted to change her name. I was really disappointed that she was given a beautiful and meaningful name!!! I have been a Billy Ray fan since 92 and remember when she was born. I am sorry people take the Lord’s name in vain to express a view. I am sure deep in her father’s heart he is sad. I believe later in life she will regret this. Thank You.
frikkin old news. wtf?
Wasn’t this from a year ago =S.?
yeah she’ll regret it!
She’s a terrible rolemodel for kids! I don’t understand why parents say.. Oh I rather have my kid looking up to this sk4nk than Paris, Lindsay, Britney’s sister (whatever her name is) etc… They are all the same…
The media is just waiting for this one to slip… which won’t be too late… I mean those leaked pic online! Were awful…
But the picture with Annie Leboivitz was AMAZING!! she should not regret that one EVER…
she should regret the bad decision she makes to expose her green bra… etc
I can’t believe she apologized for the Vanity Fair pictures and not for her all those pictures of her antics…
Who really cares about this girl ?!
The name sounds like a back woods hillbilly name. Miley is way better and a little more professional.
does anyone know her realy myspace page. you know the one with all the picturess
miley is more better!! i like very much
i agree with number 22 for sure.
<3
who even cares about miley?
‘im soo sick of seeing her everywhere.
stop saying stop dissapointing miley
miley is a beutiful name
also destiny hope is
miley is a popular singer all her fans love her
and they will always
i love supporting her no matter what if you dont like her k but you dont have to say bad stuffs about her she is just a popstar she is not another lindsey lochan lindsey lochan is worse then miley.vanessa hudgens took worser pics of herself naked.and you still like her why dont you like miley too.at leats miley wore something on her like a bra and vanessa didnt oki
so stop
I thought this happened awhile ago.. I guess it was officially legalized.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. Stardom mess with your head. Young girls can’t hand it. You can see it in her interviews.
destiny is such a white trash name! miley is so much better
destiny is such a white trash name! miley is so much better
i think miley ray’s also cute
but i prefer miley!
haha yeah she is a ****…..haha the next messed up disney girl
own, I love this name, Miley :)
She’s so nice, I love SO MUCH Miley and she’s a good girl
People think she’s a ****, she’s going to be like Britney and blahblah
nope, cause she has head, that was just a photoshop artistic and you americans are all like “OH GOD SHE SHOWED HER BACK! WE’RE GONNA DIE”
OMG, some famous ppl take pictures SO MUCH HORRIBLE than these
i think i like her old name better.. although there are some people that would rather be called not by their real name.. like me.. so i guess thats alright..
good for her
Yay
I love the name Miley!
Miley is awesome
i thought she said she legaly changed her name like 3 months ago
she’s finished. This is a clear example of the abuse of our courts. If your little girl just wanted to up and change her name I can assure you it wouldn’t be granted. She’s a washed up childstar and hopefully she’ll disappear instead of corrupting todays youth with her twisted lifestyle.
I blame the parents just like I do for all the nonsense involved with the spears girls. It’s the parents that want in the limelight. It’s mileys parents that are doing all this. Miley should be taken into protective custody or given to another family member better suited to raise a young girl.
no one cares, god
Ok WELL SOME PEOPLE CARE AND I HAVE A FRIEND NAMED HOPE
Destiny Hope is much more wonderful, it has a meaning to it.
miley is such a better name and i hope that her dad is ok w/ it.
I hope she dosn’t turn out like britt. or lyndsey lo. or the olsen twins.
She’s too good for that.
omg ur a mofo for thinkin shes like lyndsey lohan seriously she can change her name its not like shes lieing about doing drugs!
