Suppose that you have a baby, what are the chances that you are going to name the child X Æ A-12? For Elon Musk, his seemed to fall on once in a lifetime opportunity as he named his baby just that. When Elon Musk and Grimes had a baby, the world was confused about their name, and upon asking the parents told us that. The robotic, cyborg-ish name has got the world scratching its head as people figure out how does one even pronounce the baby’s name? Let us help you out with it!

Elon Musk’s Baby Name is A Mystery To Solve!

If we take a step back and look at what we are dealing with, then check out Elon Musk. The guy has been getting into hot waters numerous times for his ‘fun’ tweets that seem like a joke to him. He frequently posts weird (not creep though) tweets and that is the type of guy he is. So when he named his child X Æ A-12, one might just expect that he was not in the mood to answer!

On Tuesday, however, Grimes posted a breakdown of what each character of her and Elon Musk’s baby name means.

“•X, the unknown variable
(A=Archangel, my favorite song)
(metal rat)”


WHAT? Let’s ease our pace here:

So, “X” stands for the unknown variable. “Æ” stands for Grimes’ ‘elven spelling of AI”. Next, “A-12” is a CIA secret aircraft, whose internal name was Archangel. “Metal rat” at the bottom denotes the child’s zodiac sign and the element they carry. There are five elements (earth, wood, fire, and metal), and the year 2020 is the year of the rat in Chinese Zodiac, hence metal rat.

How Do We Pronounce The Name Though?

Let’s try pronouncing Elon Musk’s baby name:

Californian laws stipulate that a baby’s name cannot have ideograms, can only include the symbol hyphen, and must be made using 26 English language alphabets. No numerical characters either, the baby’s name is something else. Hence:

X can be taken as Ecks. Whereas, we pronounce Æ as ash as in “bad”. However, Grimes tells that it’s pronounced as “Ai”, so fine. A-12 is simply the Archangel.

Therefore, Elon Musk’s baby name is Eck Ai Archangel!!

Yes, we don’t get it either.
