Elon Musk’s daughter Xavier Alexander Musk filed papers in the superior court of California to change their name to Vivian Jenna Wilson. According to HollywoodLife, Musk’s change is part of their new gender identity as a female and cut ties with the billionaire.

Once Xavier officially changes their name to Vivian, they will adopt Wilson as their last name to honor their mother, Justine Wilson . “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 documents read. Xavier will continue their proceedings on June 24 at the Santa Monica courthouse.
