A Name That Turns Heads
Elon Musk’s son has one of the most unique names out there, and even after hearing it from the child himself, it’s still tough to pronounce. The name is definitely one of the most unconventional celebrity baby names, and it’s still puzzling to many.
The Big Reveal
When Musk and Grimes announced their baby boy’s name back in 2020, it definitely turned some heads. It’s still a name that makes people stop and think. In fact, many might prefer to just call him “one of Musk’s kids” rather than trying to pronounce his full name!
A Fun Moment with Tucker Carlson
Recently, during an interview Musk had with Tucker Carlson, his son made a cute and funny appearance. The little boy walked into the room, placed his toy car on the desk, and climbed onto his father’s lap. Carlson, intrigued by the child’s name, asked about it, to which Musk referred to him as his “mini-me” in an affectionate moment.
The Name Revealed
When the boy spoke directly into the microphone to pronounce his name, it was clear, but still hard to pronounce for most people. It makes you wonder if even the child struggles with it! Musk later referred to his son by his nickname “X,” adding humor to the situation.
The Meaning Behind the Name
When the name was first revealed, many were curious about its meaning. Grimes explained that “X” stands for the unknown variable, and the “Æ” part is the Elven spelling of AI, which represents artificial intelligence. It also means “love” in some languages like Japanese.
Different Pronunciations
Grimes and Musk have different takes on how the name should be pronounced. Grimes said it’s just “X” like the letter, and “AI” like the letter A then I. Musk, on the other hand, shared that “Æ” is pronounced like “Ash.”
