        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his partner Grimes were recently forced to alter the spelling of their newborn son&#8217;s name to comply with California law, as seen on the <strong>baby&#8217;s birth certificate obtained by TMZ</strong>.</p><p>The power couple had originally <strong>planned to name the newborn</strong> &#8220;X Æ A-12 Musk,&#8221; but were <strong>forced to change it to &#8220;X AE A-XII&#8221;</strong> after being notified that special characters and numbers were prohibited. California <strong>law dictates</strong> that names on birth certificates must employ &#8220;the 26 alphabetical letters of the English language,” although apostrophes and dashes are permitted, <strong>reports NME</strong>.</p><p>The cryptic moniker might still look like it was formulated by a cat crawling across a keyboard. However, Grimes, 32, whose real name is Claire Boucher, <a href="https://twitter.com/Grimezsz/status/1257836061520101377?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1257836061520101377&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fpopculture.com%2Fcelebrity-parents%2Fnews%2Felon-musk-grimes-sons-birth-certificate-confirms-name-x-ae-a-xii%2F" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">previously tweeted</a> that the X is the &#8220;unknown variable&#8221; in algebra while the Æ refers to the “elven spelling of Ai (love &amp;/or Artificial intelligence).&#8221; The A-12 at the end was inspired by the Lockheed A-12 reconnaissance aircraft — the couple&#8217;s &#8220;favorite aircraft&#8221; — and Musk&#8217;s sole contribution to the name, according to his latest appearance <strong>on the &#8220;Joe Rogan Experience</strong>.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;The Archangel-12, the precursor to the SR-71, the coolest plane ever,&#8221; gushed the 48-year-old SpaceX founder on the podcast.</p><p>Despite the long name, Grimes admitted on social media that they simply refer to him as &#8220;X,&#8221; <strong>reports PopCulture</strong>.</p><p>However, the couple is at odds when it comes to the name&#8217;s pronunciation. While Musk told Rogan that letters were pronounced like the letter &#8220;X&#8221; followed by &#8220;ash,&#8221; his paramour claimed on Twitter that you follow the X with &#8220;A.I.&#8221; — that is, the letter A then I.</p><p>Either way, both are equally fond of X AE A-XII, who is the singer&#8217;s first child and Musk&#8217;s seventh. However, despite the abundance of kin, the serial entrepreneur claims that he&#8217;s never enjoyed being a father more than now.</p><p>&#8220;Actually, I think it&#8217;s better being older and having a kid,&#8221; he says. &#8220;I appreciate it more. Babies are awesome.&#8221;</p><p>A new child isn&#8217;t the only reason the tech billionaire is flying high. Musk <strong>was recently selected</strong>, along with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, to build lunar landing systems to transport NASA astronauts for the 2024 Artemis moon missions.</p>]]></content:encoded>
