FINALLY Rihanna And A$AP Rocky Revealed Their Baby Name To The World And It's....RZA!!!
Ooh na na — RZA's his name!
According to the birth certificate obtained by Daily Mail, the 11-month-old son of Rihanna, 35, and boyfriend A$AP Rocky, 34, is named RZA Athelston Mayers.
The moniker pays homage to the leader of the Wu-Tang Clan, producer and rapper RZA, whose real name is Robert Fitzgerald Diggs.
The name reveal comes almost a year after the "Diamonds" singer and Rocky welcomed their first baby together and just a few months after Rihanna surprised the world with a second pregnancy during her Super Bowl halftime show.
"She loves being a mom so this is where her mind is at the moment," a source told PEOPLE in February. "She is the happiest she has ever been."
HALLELUJAH! Finally! We've all been waiting!!! No but actually I was curious about this, Rihanna and A$AP seem to have the whole "keeping our lives private until we feel like telling people information" down to a science. This baby is almost a year old and we haven't heard his name once until now.
It seems to be a cool name with a cool reasoning behind it! It does make me wonder, is it cool to be named after people? Or is it a lot of responsibility to live UP to the name? I think about this too when fathers name their sons after themselves for generations, is it a narcissist thing? Or just a built in excuse to steal your dad/grandpa/great grandpa's identity when you're in trouble with the law and/or the government? Seems like it covers all bases. You don't see this too much in women, like, I don't know anyone named after their mom. Plenty of people get the grandma middle name, but that's basically it.
Personally, I don't want anyone named after me. I am one of a kind, no one will ever be as amazing I am, it would be cruel to put so much pressure on a mere child.
Editor's Note: I feel like once you name your first kid after a member of Wu-Tang, you have to keep pumping out kids until you have the whole group. I'm talking The RZA, The GZA, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Inspectah Deck, Raekwon the Chef, U-God, Ghostface Killah, Masta Killa, and of course M.E.T.H.O.D. Mannnnnn
