After the baby&#8217;s death, the couple turned to in vitro fertilization. Justine gave birth to twins, Vivian and Griffin, in 2004, then triplets, Kai, Saxon, and Damian, in 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, Vivian was granted approval to legally change her name and gender. In her petition, she wrote that she no longer wished &#8220;to be related to my biological father in any way.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Musk and Grimes were romantically linked in 2018. Grimes gave birth to their first child, X \u00c6 A-Xii Musk, in 2020. The existence of their second child, a daughter named Exa Dark Sider\u00e6l Musk, was revealed in March of 2022 when Exa started crying while Grimes was being interviewed by a Vanity Fair reporter. Exa&#8217;s name was later changed to &#8220;Y&#8221; or &#8220;why,&#8221; the singer said on Twitter in March of this year \u2014 or just &#8220;?,&#8221; though Grimes said &#8220;the government won&#8217;t recognize that.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>The couple also has a third child, a son named Techno Mechanicus, who was born mid-June in 2022. Musk and Grimes kept his existence a secret too until the recent release of a new biography of Musk by author Walter Isaacson. Techno Mechanicus goes by the nickname Tau, a hint at Musk&#8217;s own birthday \u2014 the Greek letter stands for the number equal to two times pi, which rounds to 6.28. Both Tau and the couple&#8217;s daughter Y were born through a surrogate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Insider also revealed that Musk had twins quietly in November 2021 with one of his top executives, Shivon Zilis. Their names have not been revealed publicly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>The world&#8217;s richest individual has said the biggest threat facing the world was a flatlining birthrate and claimed that overpopulation was a myth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>The SpaceX CEO wants to put humans in a settlement on Mars. He previously said on a podcast that SpaceX will put humans on the planet with its Starship rockets in five to 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>However, he claimed there would not be enough people to move to Mars if the demographic crisis continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<h2>How do you pronounce the names of Musk&#8217;s son with Grimes?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Musk and Grimes originally had named their son X \u00c6 A-12 but had to change it to X \u00c6 A-Xii following a violation of California&#8217;s naming laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Grimes broke down the significance of each letter of the bizarre name on Twitter, explaining that X stands for &#8220;the unknown variable,&#8221; \u00c6 stands for &#8220;my elven spelling of Ai,&#8221; and A-12 is the &#8220;precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft).&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Grimes later clarified in an Instagram comment: &#8220;It&#8217;s just X, like the letter X. Then A.I. Like how you said the letter A then I.&#8221; Musk used a conflicting pronunciation, saying on the &#8220;Joe Rogan Experience&#8221; that the \u00c6 is pronounced &#8220;ash.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>While it&#8217;s still not clear how the latter half of the name is pronounced, it appears that Musk and Grimes are keeping it simple day-to-day and simply calling the baby X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<h2>Did Musk use IVF to conceive his children?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Musk used IVF to conceive five of his children with his first wife Justine, as were Musk&#8217;s twins he had last year with his Neuralink employee, Shivon Zilis. His second and third children with Grimes were born through a surrogate.<\/p>\n\n\n]]><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>                <![CDATA[Elon musk kid]]><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":0,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-200","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=200"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=200"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=200"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sesglobal.com.au\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=200"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
