Twitter was curious about what will be the name of the baby, and so were we!
When asked by a user on Twitter about the child’s name, Elon replied, “X Æ A-12 Musk”. Many fans thought Elon was trolling his fans, but the mother, Grimes, is serious about the name.

Everyone was wondering what X Æ A-12 means.
The Genesis singer took it to her official Twitter to explain the name of her child. She wrote, “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.”

the name for the ligature Æ is “ash”, the Lockheed A-12 was part of the Archangel internal design effort.
when you combine the X, ‘ash’ and A, the name could actually be pronounced ‘Sascha 12’.
the baby’s name is Sasha Archangel and frankly, i don’t wanna mess with this alien. https://t.co/jAofgDAZ7e— valeska (@iatemuggles) May 5, 2020
According to The Guardian, Grimes cleared things up the air. The baby’s real name is Xai Archangel Musk.
