These weird celebrity baby names will make you cringe

After welcoming son X Æ A-12, Grimes and Elon Musk had a baby girl whom they named Exa Dark Sideræl in December 2021.

(But the government won't recognize that)," Grimes tweeted on March 23 2022, "curiosity, the eternal question, .. and such." The news followed a rare photo of the baby girl wearing a red onesie and rocking neon hair, matching her mother.
