I wish good luck to their kid for their visa applications and forms in general especially if they travel to Europe.

I'm sure his billions of dollars will be able to straighten out the visa application.

The EU — which doesn’t include all European nations — has 24 official languages and 3 official character sets. The Danish name for the EU contains an æ (“Den Europæiske Union”). Prior heads of state of current members include Μακάριος Γ΄, with the gamma translating as “III” (i.e. “the third”). The UK has a very relaxed attitude to name changing, hence the story of Mr. Yellow-Rat Foxysquirrel Fairydiddle.

Unless Musk tries to name future kids in Emoji, European nations can probably already cope with any of this sort of thing.

I think single-letter names were already in thing in the US before that. X Musk is probably fairly recognizable.
