Elon Musk’s child files to change name and gender

An estranged child of Elon Musk has filed a petition to legally change gender and both given and family names, citing disdain for the Tesla entrepreneur.

According to a report Monday at TMZ, male-born Xavier Musk filed a petition in April, a day after turning 18, to legally change names to Vivian Jenna Wilson.

It wasn’t all about being legally recognized as a trans woman either, according to the reasons given on documents filed with Los Angeles County Superior Court.

“Gender Identity and the fact that I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form,” the petition states.
