The trend of ridiculous celebrity baby names or situations where they don’t even have what you would call a name continues, with Grimes announcing that her and Elon Musk’s daughter, Exa, will now be known as ‘?’.
Yes, seriously…
You would think the bare minimum any toddler would want from their parent is to give them a name that doesn’t make them a total laughing stock, but the quirkier the better as far as Grimes is concerned. I mean, imagine the other kids at school asking this little girl her name and she responds with ‘?’. It’s a recipe for disaster.
“what’s ur name”
“Why”
“just asking”
“yes, Why”
“nevermind”
The kid’s already got green hair from the looks of it so I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s in full on Joker mode by the time she’s able to put together a coherent sentence. I don’t want to judge anyone’s parenting techniques but fxck me… what’s the thought process behind this? What does Elon make of it? Hopefully the kid makes up a fake name for herself when she starts school and rolls with that because you’re not getting anywhere in life with people calling you ‘?’.
Previously, Elon and Grimes changed their baby boy’s name from X AE A-12 to X AE A-XII in order to comply with California laws, so at least the siblings will be able to share in the trauma in coming years.
Grimes explained at the time that the name’s first letter stood for “the unknown variable,” while AE was the “elven spelling of Ai (love &/or Artificial intelligence).”
She added, “A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defenses, just speed. Great in battle, but non-violent. A=Archangel, my favorite song).”
It doesn’t end there either – Elon Musk has a transgender daughter (from a previous marriage) who also recently filed to change her name. When will it all end?
