Kimora Lee Simmons looks like she wants to make her life simple … because she’s looking to officially drop the last names of a couple of her exes, including Russell Simmons.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Kimora filed paperwork to change her name from Kimora Lee Simmons-Leissner to Kimora Lee.

The reasoning … Kimora says she wants the change for “consolidation of records and names used in different documents.”

Kimora married Russell in 1998 … they divorced in 2009, but she kept Simmons as a last name. She married Tim Leissner in 2014 and apparently joined his surname with Simmons to become Kimora Lee Simmons-Leissner. Kimora and Tim separated in 2022.

Kimora was born Kimora Lee Perkins in St. Louis … but it looks like she doesn’t want to go back to that and is instead looking to shorten her name to just Kimora Lee.
