Machine Gun Kelly reveals why he and Megan Fox chose the name Saga Blade for their daughter
Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox split last year after the star announced her pregnancy.
Machine Gun Kelly shared, for the first time, the story behind his and Megan Fox's enigmatic daughter's name: Saga Blade. During an appearance on the 'Today' show this Friday, June 20, the rapper revealed that the name is not only unique, but deeply symbolic and rooted in personal history.
The little girl, born in March 2025, was officially introduced to the world this week through a sweet video posted by MGK on Instagram. In the clip, the musician appears playing the ukulele while Saga, barely three months old, rocks in front of him in a rocking chair. "Saga Blade Fox-Baker," he wrote alongside the video, thanking Megan Fox for what he described as "the ultimate gift."
What's the meaning of the name?
As for the origin of the name, MGK explained, "I think the journey of it, you know, the five years of it culminating, of going, going, coming back, going, coming back... it's an epic story. That's what a saga means." Additionally, she explained that Saga refers to the Norse goddess of storytelling, highlighting her connection to the singer's cultural heritage and storytelling. "She has a narrative future ahead of her," she proudly added.
The baby's middle name, Blade, also has a special history. In a recovered video from a 2021 interview with GQ, Megan and MGK proved they were in sync long before their daughter was born. In a game of couples, the actress correctly guessed that "Blade" would be the ideal middle name for her partner, to which he excitedly responded, "That's what I want."
This is the couple's first child together. MGK, 35, is already the father of 15-year-old daughter Casie from a previous relationship with Emma Cannon. Megan Fox, meanwhile, is the mother of three children—Noah, Bodhi, and Journey—with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green.
Although the two are no longer together, they are doing their best to raise their daughter. Last year, after announcing her pregnancy, the actress confessed that her relationship with the rapper was over.
Both the media and fans on social media thought it would be temporary and that they would get back together, but everything indicates that for Fox the separation was final.
According to reports, the star ended their relationship after finding a disturbing video on the singer's phone. This version was confirmed by a source to Us Weekly.
"They don't talk often, but they have exchanged some text messages," the source said at the time. Additionally, they stated that "MGK wants to get back with Megan, but she has told him that her decision is final."
