Elon Musk announcing that his son is named X Æ A-12 Musk created quite an online chatter. In fact, the tech giant, during a podcast interview, also revealed the meaning of the unusual name and how to pronounce it. Now, a creative mind, Richard Reis, has come up with a website which, taking a cue from X Æ A-12, guesses what Elon Musk would have named you if he was your dad.

Reis shared about the website on Twitter and wrote, “I just launched the @elonmusk name generator on @ProductHunt! Get your name “Elonified.” He also announced the existence of the site while replying to a tweet by Elon Musk.

The idea sat well with people and now many are trying to get the “Elonified” version of their names and the results are very interesting. A few also changed their profile name to the new name the website generated.
