The actress has hitherto been known as Thandie, an anglicised version of her name with the "w" absent.
All of Newton's films will be credited with the name Thandiwe (pronounced "tan-DEE-way") Newton in future.
"That's my name. It's always been my name. I'm taking back what's mine," Newton told British Vogue.
The actress, whose full name is Melanie Thandiwe Newton, said her name was misspelled in the credits to her first film in 1991, Flirting, which co-starred Nicole Kidman and Noah Taylor.
As a result, Thandie Newton became the widely-used spelling of her name and has stuck with the actress for three decades.
Newton also told Vogue she welcomed how much representation of ethnic minority groups has improved in the entertainment landscape.
"The thing I'm most grateful for in our business right now is being in the company of others who truly see me. And to not be complicit in the objectification of black people as 'others', which is what happens when you're the only one," she said.



Tan-dee-way is still a fine milf.
