The newborn boy of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky has been named, much to the chagrin of many. Riot Rose Mayers is the name of the couple’s second child, according to The Blast. According to pictures of his birth certificate that the outlet was able to secure, he was born on August 1.
Thoughts regarding the new member of the family have been around for a while, they gained momentum two weeks ago when it was made public that Rihanna had given birth. TMZ didn’t know anything else about the name other than it started with a R at the time.
Riot’s monikersakes were speculated by fans to be Rajad and Rorrey, the brothers of the “Rude Boy” vocalist, Rohan, Remy, and a host of other possibilities.
RZA Athelston Mayers, a 1-year-old kid, is already the couple’s child. May 2022 saw the birth of the child. When Rihanna made her history-breaking Super Bowl halftime show debut in January, she announced that she was expecting her second child.
Numerous people have taken to social media once the mystery was solved. One individual said, “Posting the birth certificate was crazy.” Another person remarked, “Someone getting fired this is a violation and disgusting behavior.” Despite the outcry over the birth certificate leak, many people commented on the name itself.

“Iconic and riotous,” exclaimed an admirer. “Should have just named him Robin Jr.” was said by another. Robyn Rihanna Fenty is her real name, even though she is better known to the world as Rihanna. “What happened to regular baby names?” said a third fan.
When media outlets received a copy of RZA’s birth certificate, his name was made public a few days before his first birthday. In posts honoring his birthday, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky confirmed. The name pays homage to RZA, the Wu-Tang Clan emcee.
Although their strong relationship dates back to 2013, the delighted parents of two have only been together for slightly over three years. Rumors have been circulating that the two musicians are secretly married ever since they started their family. A$AP Rocky and Rihanna have not publicly acknowledged the rumors.
