Both are known for their eccentric ways, and they truly DID NOT disappoint!
Grimes had a very ~alternative~ pregnancy, to say the least.

The 32-year-old singer described her pregnancy as a "crazy sacrifice" in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine back in March.
"For a girl, it’s sacrificing your body and your freedom. It’s a pretty crazy sacrifice and only half of the population has to do it. It was really profound to me when I decided I was going to do it, to actually go through the act of, like, y’know, unprotected sex."

"I’m just like, I have sacrificed my power in this moment. I have, like, capitulated. And I have spent my whole life avoiding that situation," she explained.
On May 5th, Elon and Grimes' son X Æ A-12 Musk was born.
Naturally, the name took the internet for a WILD RIDE!
For the record, Elon has fathered six other children and they all have relatively normal names.
Elon and his ex-wfie Justine Wilson had six sons together during their eight year marriage.

Now, about that X Æ A-12 name...
Grimes took to Twitter to attempt to explain the origin of her son's name and it was just as confusing as you would imagine.
A name that involves an elven spelling of Ai and metal rat? Iconic.
And as *watertight* as that explanation was, it apparently has its flaws! I know right?! I'm surprised too!
Twitter user "Weird" Al Jolson called the description "hilariously dumb" and then talked about a hat?
IDK y'all, I'm so confused!
However, I think the one thing we *all* understand is that the memes have been absolutely top notch!!!!
The poor bebe never stood a chance to not be Twitter teased for that name, lol.
If you're looking for a way to pass the time during these dark days, just do a quick Twitter search!
X Æ A-12 Musk sounds like a robot name, I hate to say it.
I think my main question is how does one even go about PRONOUNCING this? Is the A-12 silent? What does the Æ sound like?!
I mean, I guess the joke is truly on us because X Æ A-12 is gonna be *hella* rich one day.
Maybe the name is a teaser of a new Tesla model?!
Is it a preview into the future?!
WE NEED ANSWERS ELON!
Well, even if the name is whack, it's safe to say baby X Æ A-12 Musk is really, *really* cute!
I personally cannot wait to see what his nickname will be!
Hopefully something easy, like Bob!
