From the title it looks like we have word games, but it?s true. After the speculation and explanation that Grimes, Elon Musk's partner, made the name of his son, X Æ A-12, it turns out that in fact the state of California has well-defined rules when it comes to baby names. People contacted lawyer David Glass, who said the California law does not allow the use of symbols.
"In California, you can use the 26 letters of the alphabet. So numbers, Roman numerals, accents or other symbols are not allowed. Only the apostrophe, as in the names O'Connor, is acceptable. "
Glass said Musk and Grimes would certainly present the name, but it would not be accepted. "Because the name contains numbers and symbols, the request will be rejected," he added. Of course, Elon Musk has the opportunity to appeal the decision, but it seems futile. "It's unlikely to be allowed, because California has long struggled not to use symbols."
Glass told People that there was also a bill to ease name restrictions, but it was crashing because the computers used did not provide the opportunity to process birth certificates.
Until Elon solves the legal issues, we continue to ask: Will anyone explain how it is pronounced?
