M.I.A’s bun is out of the oven. Performing at the Grammy’s on her actual due date February 8th M.I.A. gave birth to a little boy just days later on February 11th. According to reports Mathangi Maya Arulpragasam (which is her real name in case you did not know) and her soon to be husband Benjamin Brewer who is the guitarist for the group “The Exit” named the little guy Ickitt. Neha Kumar, an Indian student at the University of Michigan Center for South Asian studies, said the word “ickitt” functions as a command that means “to keep.” Another interesting one to be added to the list of “Most Bizarre Celeb Baby Names”.
