Elon Musk and Shivon Zillis have welcomed four children together, shocking the internet that they welcomed their fourth child within the past year. Amid this news, many eagle-eyed internet sleuths realized, they gave their newborn a political name.
“Discussed with Elon and, in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to also just share directly about our wonderful and incredible son Seldon Lycurgus,” Zillis said on X, the app formerly known as Twitter. “Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much ❤️ .” (So not only did this tweet reveal that they have a newborn son named Seldon Lycurgus, but they revealed the name of their daughter, Arcadia, who they welcomed back in 2024!)
But, back to their newborn son. While Seldon is an English baby name meaning “from the house on the hill,” his middle name is something else entirely. His middle name is seemingly an homage to the Spartan lawmaker, Lycurgus, who started the formation of eunomia (meaning “good order”). He was deeply engrossed in poltiical and social reforms in Sparta, and was revered as a God.
While most of Musk’s 14 children have rather unique names, this one may be the most unique to date.
As previously stated, Musk has welcomed 13 children that we know of. He and his first wife, Justine Musk, welcomed six children together named Nevada (who tragically passed away at 10 weeks old), twins Griffan and Vivian, born in April 2004, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian, born in Jan 2006.
Then, he and Grimes welcomed three children named X Æ A-Xii, born in May 2020, Exa Dark Sideræl, born in Dec 2021, and Techno Mechanicus. He allegedly welcomed a 13th child with Clair.
And like we said, he and Zillis have now welcomed four children. They welcomed twins Azure and Strider back in 2021. Then, in Feb 2024, they welcomed a daughter named Arcadia, and in 2025, they announced they had welcomed a son named Seldon Lycurgus.
