X Æ A-Xii is Elon’s sixth child and Grimes first. 

There were controversies, speculation, and jokes after they announce the name of the baby. 

Grimes later explained the meaning in her social media handle where “X” represents an unknown variable, Æ is the elven spelling of Ai and A-Xii is a type of CIA aircraft they both love.

A secret baby with Elon Musk revealed

Amid Musk's on and off relationship with musician girlfriend Grimes, Grimes recently revealed having a secret baby with Musk during an interview with Vanity Fair

The revelation came out after the journalist, during an in-person sit-down interview, asked her if she had welcomed another baby, hearing the infant crying from upstairs multiple times. 

The journalist was bound to ask the question as Grimes had said that her son X was not there. 

She initially hesitated but eventually confirmed the news and also revealed that the baby girl was via surrogate because she feared complications like she had during her first pregnancy and the name of the baby girl to be Exa Dark Siderael with her nickname Y. 

Grimes said of her relationship with Musk to be fluid having said that she would probably refer to him as her boyfriend. 

She said they lived in a different house, but they see each other all the time, and they have their things going on, and she doesn't expect other people to understand it. 

She further stated that they have always wanted at least three or four kids.

He recalled a moment when he once took his kids to the Telsa factory, thinking that they would get excited about all the advanced machines around, but to his surprise, they showed less excitement because, as per Musk, they had seen the factory 20 times before. 

He also humorously added that he gets more excitement from inventions than his sons do.
