Elon Musk Names Newborn Child Techno Mechanicus

Businessman Elon Musk and singer Grimes have become parents again. The news of the birth of the couple's third child was announced on September 10. On the X social network, the Pop Base account revealed that the child has been named Techno Mechanicus. Musk confirmed this information with a post that read, "Tau Techno Mechanicus. Circuit/Diameter."

Neither Grimes nor Musk had announced that they were expecting a child. The couple already has two other children together: a son born in May 2020 and a daughter born in December 2021. Their names are X Æ A-Xii (pronounced as “Ex Ash A-Twelve”) and Exa Dark Siderel. At least that’s how they were named after birth. Grimes mentioned in one interview that her daughter's name is simply Y (pronounced “Why”).

Musk has five more children from his first marriage to Justine Wilson: twins Griffin and Xavier (born in 2004) and triplets Damian, Saxon, and Kai (born in 2006). Musk's firstborn son, Nevada, was born in 2002.
