Zilis has publicly confirmed the name of the child in a recent post on X. While she did not disclose when the baby was born, she revealed the child’s name while celebrating their third child Arcadia’s first birthday.

Zilis and Musk had previously kept the identities of their third and fourth children private. However, she has now disclosed that their fourth child is named Seldon Lycurgus. “Discussed with Elon, and in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to share directly about our wonderful and incredible son, Seldon Lycurgus. Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much,” Zilis wrote. Musk responded to the post with a heart emoji.

According to reports, the couple welcomed their third child, Arcadia, at the beginning of 2024. With this, Musk has now fathered at least 12 children, including four with Zilis: twins Strider and Azure, followed by Arcadia and Seldon.

Musk’s complex parenting history has been a topic of public interest. He first became a father in 2002 with his late son, Nevada Alexander Musk, from his first wife, Justine Wilson. Later, the couple had twins and triplets through IVF. Musk also has three children with musician Grimes.

Meanwhile, Ashley St Clair recently claimed that she gave birth to his son five months ago. Musk is yet to confirm or deny the claim.
