Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has fathered 13 children with multiple partners. Here’s an overview of his children, including the late Nevada Alexander Musk, accompanied by rare photos of some of them.
Nevada Alexander Musk (2002)
Nevada was Elon Musk’s first child with his first wife, Justine Wilson. Tragically, he passed away at 10 weeks old due to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
Griffin and Vivian Jenna Musk (2004)
Twins Griffin and Vivian were born in 2004. Vivian later transitioned and publicly changed her name to Vivian Jenna Wilson, reflecting her gender identity.
Kai, Saxon, and Damian Musk (2006)
In 2006, Elon and Justine welcomed triplets: Kai, Saxon, and Damian. Details about their personal lives are kept private, and they have largely stayed out of the public eye.
X AE A-XII Musk (2020)
Elon Musk and musician Claire Boucher, known professionally as Grimes, welcomed their first child, X AE A-XII, in 2020. The unique name combines elements of their interests and is pronounced “X Ash A Twelve.”
Exa Dark Sideræl Musk (2021)
In 2021, Elon and Grimes had a daughter named Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, nicknamed “Y.” The name “Exa” refers to a supercomputer term, and “Sideræl” is a nod to a more esoteric spelling of “sidereal,” meaning “in relation to the stars.”
Techno Mechanicus Musk (2022)
In 2022, Elon and Grimes welcomed a son named Techno Mechanicus Musk, nicknamed “Tau.” Details about his birth and name have been kept private.
Strider and Azure Musk (2023)
In 2023, Elon Musk and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis welcomed twins, Strider and Azure. The names reflect a preference for unique and meaningful choices.
Ashley St. Clair’s Alleged Child (2024)
In February 2025, conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed to have given birth to Elon Musk’s 13th child, a son born five months earlier. Musk has not publicly confirmed this claim.
Elon Musk’s family life is characterized by a preference for unique names and a commitment to privacy regarding his children’s personal lives. While some children, like X AE A-XII, have been in the public eye due to their parents’ prominence, many of Musk’s children lead private lives away from the media spotlight.
