Tech entrepreneur and musician have changed their child’s name from X Æ A-12 to X Æ A-Xii, without much explanation

Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk and his partner Grimes have changed the unusual and largely unpronounceable name of their firstborn child. But anyone hoping that X Æ A-12 might be replaced by something a little more conventional, is going to be disappointed.

They just want attention. Sad the child will pay the price.

Your Kingdom by the Sea, Adelaide of Lombards.👩‍🚀

The fuck? Will just call him Phil. I believe Phil will work and that kid will be WAYYYY happier with fucking Phil

I'm sure alcohol was involved in the conception...why stop when it's time to name the baby?

Sick people!

Wait, this shit is legit?

....i thought they named him glen.

Why is he wearing a white suit and a black color like he's some sort of reverse priest? that's what I want to know. did he pick out his clothes or is it that wife of his right there?

This dude got married to a cam girl

He's doing it wrong. When people would ask if Dweezil or Moonunits names would cause them trouble, Frank Zappa would reply 'Its the name Zappa thats going to cause trouble'. 'Musk' isn't a surname that can give that distraction.

None of us gonna talk about how Elon's girlfriend looks she should be his daughter?

I wonder what they're going to change it to next week?

Hey guys here it's world criminal couples TomCruise and his sex worker prostitutes Grimezsz and under police and FBI investigation. Here it's elonmusk girlfriend Moe Moe.

Oof

rip

I hate them so much

Could they not just give the poor child a normal name

Baby of Grimes= Grimey. Grimey Musk, great.

Dumbasses. Even smart people dumb things down.

I don't have a problem with the names. I am in need of a linguist to help me pronounce it. 🙏

Roman numerals do look better

Whatever they smoking..I want some.

Now do something about your fashion sense

They seriously hate that poor child. I honestly don’t see why they couldn’t just name him Ash, just spell it fancy (Æ). But no they decided to name their kid that, now he’s going to get bullied his whole life.

What a pair of toss knobs

This is a selfish, thoughtless way to name a child. Kids go through enough ridicule in life w/o having a name that begs for more. Why not just stamp a number on the poor child’s wrist & call him “boy”.

BushraVII

Also clouds the fact that they had eleven unsuccessful clones before this one

just name him shawn or sumn PLS

I love these articles that just peels away layer after layer of elonmusk once humanity. It's amazing to see him flaunt his detachment from this kid in every article that comes out where he either forgets the kids name or just don't care to pronounce it correct.

God he's become such a parody of himself I can't even look.

Does anyone else find Grimes kinda scary?

Don’t judge them .its called being a celebrity

So now it's X AE A-Xii.....🤔 Pronounced: exayay-nvxtuxx8xu

Why is there a news article about this?

What a pair of knobs.

They are so out of touch with reality. Maybe they could have considered the fact that the kid will hate that name. He might not want anything to do with his father's work and live his own life.

people responding on how the child is gonna be bullied are people who would bully someone for their name

Should’ve changed it to C-o-rr-up-t

How did he not realise this before.

I heard they called him Jack instead .

Do they think it's funny or proving a point or something? cringe

God. how do you even pronounce it. Just call him Bob ffs and be done with it. 'Bob Tesla'

OMG 🙏🤦🏻‍♂️

X not isogg. 'XASLX' We libya KSAmofaEN used letters as numbers, then invented ArabicNumeral to help customers. We invented most Calculus Trigonometry notations pre-Leibniz, '_ _ Algebra _ _ _' Giant Vol of all math, laws, surveying, mapping, stars. elonmusk Grimezsz

More likely you are only allowed alphabet in a name and not symbols or numbers. Unless you were Prince.

Still twattish

Poor child, they will one day regret naming their child weird and out of this world name 🤦‍♀️

without much explanation lol omg poor newspaper 🥲

Is this news worthy?Really?Tbf I don't really care what elonmusk has named his child. It's up to them. It's just nice to see someone else who's used the age old Æ (Ash) letter.Our youngest daughter is called Ælfwynn, after the last queen of mercia. Move along, nothing 2see here

its not about looks. its a utility.

No they really don't, y'all could've named the poor soul something normal like Alex

Looks ridiculously stupid either way, he's not a toy..Dumbos then they wonder why celebrity kids get on Crack.

Dear social services....

What kind of mum&dad would name a human specie out of math form as if it's a freaking project? Alphabetical mil.code is bloody better! Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo Echo Lina Oscar November & Golf Romeo India Mike Echo Sierra. FAIL

:Ä: respect the hability of Elon and Grimes to put mutant names

That kid finna get bullied smh

i’m crying rn

Can someone fill me in on why Grimes is even a name? Makes me cringe.

They didn’t give their child a name, they gave it a serial number

It should be against the law to have an unpronounceable set of random letter as a name too 🙄 He’s a person FCOL, not a computer 😒

Wanquer looks better than wanker too

haveyoumetraul i feel so so so sorry for the kid

Optics of name and change remain indicative of mental problems.

They need to make a law to protect children from parents who think they are being super creative by giving them stupid ass names.

Who likes Roman numerals? i for one.

Abusing a child just to get people talking about them. They need to seek help.

Poor mf is getting bullied in kindergarten on day one

No one in their right mind would do that to a child! 🤦‍♂️

Who gives a fuck?

loonatheworld congrats to X Æ A-Xii’s godmother GoWon💘

poor kid. damn publicity stunts...

fakebaby boycottgrimes

That kid is gonna be made fun of so bad

Yes he should change also his name ?

Musk & Grimes are changing their names, too. 1) Bzzz-yeeeee-bam! Bam! Bam! whoooosh... (spoken at 37 kHz) 2) Contessa Sinead Rodriguez Goldberg (spoken with an Ojibwe accent) Guess which name goes to whom. No, you're wrong.

I feel bad for the baby.

but WHY 😂

Elon needs to change his own name. How about Owa Tana Siam .

Yeah but does he run on solar and nitrogen ?

Honestly. The Fuck Does This Do? We All Knew Elon Musk Had Vision, But Is Also Mental. I’m Surprised His Child Isnt Legit Something He BUILT.

He is now called COMPLY WITH CALIFORNIA LAW MUSK

So you wanted to call him Sasha 12 but couldn’t spell? 100M years of evolution for that....

OK.

One of the most unsuitable couple give it a couple of Roman years they will be separated but poor baby gonna be stuck with that name ....

Why do these rich fucks think this is cool

How empty do you have to be inside to be a billionaire and still crave this kind of bullshit attention?

This dude actually fucking said roman nubers are better

it can actually be pronounced as “SASHA” I think?!? elonmusk

WHAT THE F U C K

ElonMuskIsATrumptard

Probably named his kid this for the attention, lol

Grimes and Musk: “We changed the baby’s name”. Remaining Citizens of Earth:

jake_xv

Who cares?

gruber

Whatever elonmusk , just make that truck look better or else I'm taking my 100 bucks back. I don't care what you call your kid, when he's a teen he will be annoyed and not talk to either of you like ALL teens do.

CA doesn't allow number as names

He'll always be Archaeopteryx to me.

😂😂

I heard it was required by the state of CA, no numbers allowed

why y’all coming for a kids name😭 let them be

Just name him Ben. Jeez. Fuck, it shouldn’t be THAT hard.

The perfect name was staring them in the face!

The explanation is that they are freakn nuts. ElonMusk elonmuskbaby

😳

I'm gonna laugh when this kids grows up and legally changes his name to Steve or something.

This baby was just born and this is already psychologically too much. I feel like these two are the worst kind of narcissists.

Because it looks better or because California law prohibits numbers from being used in names?

The kid will hate them when he grows up

Baby’s first software update, they grow up so fast.

I HATE THAT RIGHT WINGED BASTARD MUSK (I wonder what his musk smells like?)

I hate these people so so so so much. What a difference a couple years of extreme fame makes on people.

Who cares?

My money says they were told they couldn't have digits in the name and were forced into this change 😏

is this child abuse?

This guys washed

Saw this and thought you were trending Mercifull

he's not a tech entrepreneur, he's a diamond mine heir who uses his money buying already extant tech companies

Oooooo k

Couldn't give a shit less about these two and their sure to be ugly baby.

Parents (I ask you)

Just a coupla gearboxes!

Poor baby dodged a bullet

Grimes is great at names...

👽♥️

How would one pronounce this poor fuckers name?

In uncertain & tough times like this where we are unable to go about our normal lives and go to work as we would love to. The best we have to do right now is have a steady means of cash flow and that is what I provide through my Bitcoin mining operations ⛏💻⚡️🥇

I was hoping they'd rename it to K-PAX.

Poor child....

Ban 5G this monster is launching satellites to contaminate the atmosphere for his wallet they are horrific look at them monsters

This guy tries so damn hard to be cool 😂

This kids gonna for sure go by a nickname for the rest of his life smh

lol bingbau_

How do you even pronounce this and did they stop to consider that the poor kid will most likely be the target of bullying because of this name?

A pair of flakes.

Is that the best he could do?

Ours. C21H30O2 Cannabis elonmusk Tesla

More successful than you all are it will be.

Lol..😂😂

Harry. I was right.

He already has 5... why now?

Today’s best news !

It's like how I change my Twitter handle. No big deal.

Jesus 🙄

Why are you covering this bullls**t? You’re a serious newspaper. The only UK newspaper I read and trust (one of the few in the world ).

So, whilst playing Scrabble with 17 year old daughter last night, I asked her to stick a bit of Grimes on. Response - “Why are you asking for that? Is it because she is going out with Elton Musk?” 🤣 He is a pure rocket (Glesga patter) man btw!!

That poor kid.

Here's the attention you wanted elonmusk

When your parents are rich but also sick

does he realized hes naming a goddamn baby? seems like hes creating a new game character

does he realized that hes naming a baby not creating new character?

How about just 'Model X'?

Cringe off you dorks

If it was a girl they could have just pronounced Xaeaxii as 'Susie'

Poor kid.

Honestly, who are these assholes anyway...

I HOPE THAT KID BITCH SLAPS BOTH OF YOU ONE DAY.

Weirdos elonmusk

You are so out of touch. I pity your baby!

Fuck Elon Musk.

Fuck ya

grimey by name and nature

Ok, Xii it is. Now, can we have some real news, please?! Thank you.

Roman numerals look better is a weird name as well

Next Tweet....🤪

If millions of people from around the world are flocking to follow The Guardian, why is it desperately seeking subscribers?

I’ll file this under who the fuck cares.

Who gives a fuck?

'Yeah, she's great at names.' No, mate, she's sh*t at names.

What a stupid fucking name.

There truly is a fine line between genius and idiot

Best to ignore this 'story' completely.

I feel for the poor kid

I'm not going to lie, it does look better.

White trash with money.I wonder if they have gold room like their buddy Donny?

I don't even know who he is.

What a pair of twunts....

How old is that child next to him, I remember him calling someone a peado!!

That poor kid is going to be fucking crazy.

Like, just call him Asher Roman, or Roman Asher. That way it's at least kind of a normal name and you still get some of your preferred features from it.

Whilst this is a fact, it is not news. What two people nobody cares about want to call/change their child's name to is a matter for them. It will become news in 10 - 15 years time when she sues them and/or changes it.

I’m partial to Ralph myself

Tell you what UK, since we took Harry and Meg,(their choice) you can have these two.. I realize neither are American.. but that won’t stop him from acting like it.. square deal.

Arhhh, The trials and tribulations of the 1% __

An entire family of dumbfucks 💕

I love Grimes as a musician but this name makes me lose some respect for her. It's not fair to treat your child as an extension of your art project. A name like this is indulgent and risks humiliating the child.

Weirdos.

He is Cuckoo for coco puffs

that poor fucking kid

As soon as I heard that first name I said I was calling the kid Kyle, I'm still going with that

Money does make people go weird!

Pair of Twunts!

Who cares

lukemcgee Lol

How is it pronounced?

Is someone not getting enough attention?

lukemcgee No, she isn't great at names. Your kid has the stupidest made-up name I've ever come across. 🤣

I thought that the AE combo was also over the line?

lukemcgee I actually thought this was a newsthump article

lukemcgee Pity this poor child.

Why keep these psychos in the news?

What gigantic arseholes they are.

Mars!

Ridiculous!

Who

Who?

Nice

they’re literally crazy

I can't make the call, but I'm leaning on the latter.
