The name of Elon Musk's 11th child has been revealed in a new biography about the tech mogul's life. The biography will be released on Tuesday, September 12.

According to a book review published in the New York Times, Elon privately welcomed a third child with singer Grimes. The former couple named their son Techno Mechanicus. 

No further details were revealed about when Techno was born. Elon and Grimes welcomed their first child together, X Æ A-12 (now X Æ A-Xii) in 2020.

Pictures of the twins, and Elon's other children, were also included in the piece. The images were taken by Walter Isaacson, the journalist behind 52-year-old's upcoming biography.
