Ahead of his first birthday on May 13, legendary artist Robyn Rihanna Fenty officially reveals the name of her son.

As stated on the official certificate of live birth, the multiple award-winning singer and her partner A$AP Rocky named their first child RZA Athelston Mayers.

It appears that RZA, the music producer and head of the Wu-Tang Clan, served as inspiration for Rihanna and A$AP Rocky in choosing the name for their baby.

A$AP Rocky’s middle name, Rakim Athelaston Mayers, served as inspiration for the almost one-year-old’s middle name.

Since giving birth, Rihanna has been seen sporting RZA and Wu-Tang Clan apparel.

Twitter blog, @DailyLoud shared the news in a tweet captioned: “A$AP Rocky & Rihanna name their baby boy RZA Athelston Mayers after the leader of the legendary group Wu-Tang Clan.”

She announced her second pregnancy with A$AP Rocky during her energetic Super Bowl halftime performance in February.
