Elon Musk and his partner have just had a baby son. His name?
X Æ A-12
No - I don't believe it either! For a start, how do you pronounce it? But, leaving that aside, surely it is so unfair to saddle a child with an absurd name like this. There is an explanation for what it means, although it has far more to do with Musk's personal pride and ambitions than with anything to do with the child.
The poor kid will go through his whole life bearing the burden of his parents' stupidity - although there have been plenty of similar cases in the past.

I'm sure the massively over-privileged existence the child will lead will more than compensate for "the burden of his parents' stupidity".
If Elon Musk fancies passing a million my way I would gladly change my name by deed poll to anything he wants.

Your last paragraph was very true. The poor kid will probably get stuck with some stupid nickname, too.

I read about that. Yeah I do feel sorry for the kid. Hopefully he will change his name when he gets old enough.
