Tesla Inc's CEO Elon Musk welcomed his first child with partner Grimes on 4 May. The name of his child has been a trending topic of discussion since the announcement due to its peculiar nature. Several memes have also been circulating on social media over the controversial name.

In a recent interview, Musk explained the pronunciation for the name. "So, X is just the letter X, Æ is pronounced as Ash. And, A-12 is my contribution and it is just pronounced as A-12."

Therefore, the final pronunciation of the name is, "X Ash A Twelve."

He also said that his girlfriend and Canadian singer, Grimes came with the name.

Two days after the birth of their child, Grimes explained the meaning of the name on Twitter.

"X, the unknown variable. Æ, my elven spelling of Ai (love &/or Artificial intelligence). A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favourite aircraft). No weapons, no defenses, just speed. Great in battle, but non-violent + (A=Archangel, my favorite song) (metal rat)," she said. Musk later commented on the tweet correcting that the aircraft is SR-71 and not 17.

SR-71, but yes
