She didn't. She was born Angelina Jolie Voight (Jolie as her middle name, given to her by her mom- Angelina Jolie means "pretty little angel"). She later legally changed it to Angelina Jolie when she was in her 20's
How- by going to court & legally changing her last name to her middle name Why- because she doesn't have a good relationship with her dad, she doesn't want to be compared to him, and everyone already knew her as Angelina Jolie (plus it sounds better)
Her real name is Angelina Jolie Voight, but she has always used her first two names -- French for "pretty little angel" -- professionally.
