Grimes Reveals New Name For Her And Elon Musk’s Daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl
WRITTEN BY SUMI DEKA
Grimes recently revealed that she has changed the name of her daughter she shared with billionaire Elon Musk.
She disclosed on Twitter that her youngest child is now being called either “Y, Why or ?” She posted a side-by-side of her and her daughter twinning in red.
Grimes wrote in the tweet ‘Y C’ with a dragon emoji in the middle, which prompted the fans to inquire about the real name of the child.
Her daughter was previously named Exa Dark Siderael Musk but the Canada native eventually decided to switch it up. She is currently one year old.
In an interview with Vanity Fair in April 2022, she explained the original meaning of her daughter’s name and said that Exa was called YB for short but has now deemed it her new name.
Exa refers to the computing term exaFLOPS. She added that Sidrael means the true time of the universe, star time, deep space-time, not our relative earth time.
Grimes then explained that the child’s name is meant to represent ‘curiosity, the eternal question and such.’ The duo are also the parents of another child, nicknamed X, whose name was also tweaked later.
The couple first disagreed on how the child’s name should be pronounced with Grimes explaining on Instagram that it is just X like the letter X. She added that then A.I. like how someone says the letter A followed by I.
