It's Official: Angelina Jolie Adopts New Son! Pax Thien Jolie

Angelina Jolie arrive in Vietnam to pick up new son
Angelina Jolie is a proud new mom once again, now that her adoption of a 3-year-old Vietnamese boy is official. The boy's name is Pax Thien Jolie, born in November 2003, according to the orphanage where he has lived. His name means Peaceful Sky – Pax is peace in Latin and Thien is sky in Vietnamese.

Jolie's rep says she took custody of the child on Thursday in Vietnam. They will remain in the country for about a week while the child's American passport is processed, the rep says.

The boy had been living at the Tam Binh orphanage outside Ho Chi Minh City ever since he was abandoned at a hospital as a baby, according to adoption officials. Shortly after he arrived at the facility, staff attempted to locate his birth parents, but to no avail.

Jolie went to the orphanage Thursday morning with her 5-year-old son Maddox, whom she adopted in Cambodia in 2002. Jolie's companion Brad Pitt did not accompany them to Vietnam.
