Did Nicole Richie's Daughter Change Her Name?

Kate Madden raised eyebrows after she seemingly changed her name.

Earlier this year, Nicole, 44, made headlines with an 18th birthday post that indicated Kate changed her name from Harlow.

"18 years of you ♥️🎂 @katemaddennn," she wrote in January, while her husband, Joel Madden, commented, "That’s my girl ❤️✨."

Fans quickly picked up on the new moniker.

“Happy Birthday!? Did she change her name?” one user speculated, while another wondered, “She may be going by a middle name so that she remained a bit anonymous for a while.”

The fashion designer clarified the confusion at a January 14 event.

“Yeah, she goes by her middle name. She has her whole life,” she confirmed.

Nicole admitted she “didn’t look” at the comments section of the birthday post, but it “makes sense” to her why people were puzzled.

Nicole — who also shares son Sparrow, 16, with the musician, 46 — previously gushed over how “wild and fun” it is to raise teens.

“I just so clearly remember what it’s like to be a teenager. It feels like it happened yesterday for me. And they know everything I did,” she said in a December 2024 interview. “I knew before I had them that I was going to have to be transparent with them about who I was. And I’ve actually found freedom in that. I didn’t want my kids having some big discovery about me. And I’ve always been very open and honest with my kids and hope that they are open and honest with me.”
