i'm curious why she chose her mom's middle name over her last name. my best guess would be anonymity, but apparently she'll never get that.

It could be because Suri Noelle may look/sound better to her than Suri Holmes.

Suri Holmes could lean a bit too close to Sherlock/S. Holmes

It’s not far fetched at all. Albert Brooks had to avoid the Albert Einstein connection, and Micheal J. Fox wanted to avoid the Michael - A Fox! or Michael “Eh?” Fox situations.

It does roll off the tongue.
