Elon Musk (48) announced on Twitter on Monday that he had become a father again. The Tesla boss wrote that his partner, the singer Grimes (32), gave birth to a healthy baby: “Mom and baby are fine.” The boy’s name, X Æ A-12 Musk, caused discussions on Twitter. Many initially considered him a joke from the billionaire who announced a few days ago that he wanted to get rid of almost all of his “physical possessions”.

New Mommy Grimes now commented on Twitter about the unusual name of her child and noted that this is by no means a joke. The singer explained the meaning of X Æ A-12: The X stands for the “unknown variable”, while Æ is the “elf spelling of Ai (love and or artificial intelligence)”.

The A-12 in the name stands for the aircraft model Lockheed A-12. «Forerunner of the SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defense, just speed. Great in combat, but non-violent. » In her tweet she continues: “A = Archangel, my favorite song.” The number 12 also stands for the Chinese zodiac sign of the rat. According to the Chinese horoscope, 2020 is the year of the metal rat.
