        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Elon Musk and Grimes’ <strong>bizarre choice of baby name</strong> could spark more than just confusion &#8212; it could cause legal drama.</p><p>The tech billionaire and his Canadian pop singer partner likely won&#8217;t be able to legally name their newborn boy &#8220;<strong>X Æ A-12 Musk</strong>” — because it goes against California law, according to a report.</p><p>Under the state constitution, an approved name can only use the 26 alphabetical characters of the English language —&nbsp;and no other symbols, <strong>CNN reported.</strong></p><p>Musk, 48, and Grimes, 32, &nbsp;announced the birth of their son on Tuesday and later explained the meaning behind his odd name.</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/Grimezsz?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">On Twitter,</a> Grimes said the &#8220;X&#8221; stands for &#8220;the unknown variable” and &#8220;Æ&#8221; is a symbol for artificial intelligence that also translates to &#8220;love&#8221; in several languages.</p><p>She added, “A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defenses, just speed. Great in battle, but non-violent.”</p><p>But a family law lawyer said the moniker will likely be rejected in California, where the Tesla honcho and singer live.</p><p>“You can&#8217;t have numbers, Roman numerals, accents, umlauts or other symbols or emojis. Although an apostrophe, for a name like &#8216;O&#8217;Connor,&#8217; is acceptable,” &nbsp;attorney David Glass <strong>told People magazine</strong>.</p><p>“With the odd numbers, dashes and symbols, it will be submitted and then rejected and they&#8217;ll be asked to submit it again,” he said. &#8220;They have an opportunity to appeal the rejection of the birth certificate application but it&#8217;s unlikely that it will be granted because, again, California &#8230; has been struggling with using symbols.”</p>]]></content:encoded>
