Grimes and Elon Musk change their son's name
The law states that all names must be written: "using the 26 alphabetical letters of the English language" but apostrophes and dashes can be included. Thus the couple had to rename their child from X Æ A-12 to X Æ A-Xii only because California law prohibits Indo-Arabic numerals in names.

This was revealed when a follower on Instagram asked, “Did you change the baby name because of Californian laws? What is the baby's new name?”. Grimes replied to her fan with, “ X Æ A-Xii” and also added that "Roman numerals. Looks better tbh”
Grimes also spoke to a news publishing house and revealed that she wishes that her baby becomes a fan of raving. She feels that children need to get into raving. Grimes says that she would never rave with her kid because she thinks kids and adults need to rave together. She says that her baby has already been exposed to a lot of techno in the womb.
