Twitter users have shared hilarious reactions after Grimes and Elon Musk confirmed that, indeed, their newborn son has been named X Æ A-12 Musk and explained the meaning of the name.
On Monday, May 4, billionaire techpreneur, Elon Musk and Canadian singer, Grimes, real name Claire Elise Boucher, welcomed a son. It is the 6th son for Musk but Grimes' first child.
Elon revealed on that same Monday that their child's name is X Æ A-12 but no one took him seriously.
Grimes went on Twitter hours ago to reveal that their son has truly been named X Æ A-12. She then went on to explain the meaning, adding that the A-12 in the baby's name was given to him after the A-12 Spy Plane.
The new mum wrote:
•X, the unknown variable
•Æ, my elven spelling of Ai (love &/or Artificial intelligence)
•A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defenses, just speed. Great in battle, but non-violent
+
(A=Archangel, my favorite song)
(metal rat)
Elon responded to agree with her and also to correct a small mistake where Grimes wrote SR-17 instead of SR-71.
The SpaceX CEO wrote: "SR-71, but yes."
He then added a photo of the A-12 Spy Plane and wrote: "Archangel - 12."
Twitter users were confused and asked the parents how the name will be pronounced. Some said they were trying to damage the child's life, others told them a child is not a science experiment or a technology device.
Some went as far as posting memes and jokes of what the baby will grow up to be and how his life will turn
