Elon Musk Corrected Grimes’ Explanation Of The Origin Of X Æ A-12’s Name

May 6, 2020 / Posted by:

As it was foretold, the mysteries of the universe have been explained to us from on high by a species of superior intellect, and with that elucidation comes the crushing realization that our puny minds are too weak and feeble to truly comprehend its significance. Even so, Grimes has deemed us worthy recipients of the key to deciphering the name of her child, X Æ A-12. The child’s mortal yet (allegedly) gifted father, Elon Musk (remember when Grimes told Azealia Banks he had a big dick and Azaelia said, no, your pussy just too small? I hope they have qualified child therapists on Mars), only corrected her on one small detail. Apparently space goth aliens, with all their great knowledge of the cosmos, still can’t tell the difference between SR-17 and SR-71 CIA reconnaissance jets. Cut her some slack, Elon. She’s not from around here!

According to People, Grimes dispatched a tweet giving a detailed explanation of the meanings behind the name they picked out of an intergalactic baby name book.

The 32-year-old singer confirmed that she and boyfriend Elon Musk have named their baby boy X Æ A-12 on Tuesday. In a tweet, Grimes — whose birth name is Claire Boucher — broke down the eccentric moniker for fans and explained its meaning down to the last letter.

Grimes added that the “A” in the name also represents “Archangel” — which she said is her “favorite song” — while the number “12” stood for the Chinese zodiac sign of the rat. (According to the Chinese zodiac, 2020 is the Year of the Metal Rat.)

Do you think Elon calls her “Claire Bear” during their “middle-class suburban humanoid” role-playing sessions? Here’s Grimes’ Tweet.

My husband and I have “our” favorite Thai restaurant, but our union must be a sham because we don’t also share a favorite aircraft. This is embarrassing to admit, but I don’t think it’s something we’ve ever even discussed! Elon responded with a clarification about their favorite aircraft. There’s only one man on THIS planet who has the expertise and damn nerve to “well, actually…” Grimes.

Grimes offered a final thought on baby X Æ A-12’s name before retiring to her mainframe.

So there you have it, faerie space aliens name their kids after a bunch of stuff they’re into. By this convention, my firstborn should be named β (my melmacian spelling for b as in butter) IT (my favorite Stephen King novel when I was 12) C (cats!) H (Here Comes The Hotstepper, my favorite song) PLEASE (pronounced “PUH-LEEZE“).
