    Elon Musk’s transgender daughter wants to officially change her name

    Elon Musk has transgender daughter. I know this piece of information will come as a huge shocker for many people. The concerned transgender daughter that I am talking about is actually the son of Tesla & SpaceX CEO and his name is Xavier Alexander Musk. Xavier is a child from one of Musk’s previous wives.  Xavier had undergone an operation and by the virtue of this operation Xavier changed his gender from male to female. Following this operation, Musk’s transgender daughter has filed a petition in the U.S. court, saying that she now wants to officially change her name. This new name will obviously be a female name. Musk has so far not commented on this issue.
