EXCLUSIVE Real meaning behind 'twin flames' Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly's newborn's 'prophetic' sci-fi name revealed
Megan Fox and on/off fiancé Machine Gun Kelly have revealed their daughter's name - three months after welcoming her. Machine Gun Kelly posted a video on Tuesday as he played a ukulele for his daughter - who was mostly off camera - except for a tiny portion of her leg. He revealed her name in the caption of the reel: Saga Blade Fox-Colson,' adding a burning heart. Colleen Slagen, a professional baby name consultant and author of Naming Bebe: An Interactive Guide to Choosing a Baby Name You Love, divulged exactly what Saga's name means. 'Saga is a beautiful Scandinavian name meaning "seeing one." It is a name in Norse mythology that belongs to the Goddess of Storytelling,' Colleen exclusively told 'Saga is not quite a virtue name, like one of Megan's other children, Journey, but I think "seeing one" implies something spiritual, other-worldly, prophetic... a meaning they must have been very drawn to.' 'As for Blade, it's right in line with the other edgy, radical world names we're hearing these days, especially from celebrities,' Colleen revealed. 'Riot, Crash. If anyone is going to give their daughter the middle name Blade, Machine Gun Kelly would be your best guess. It certainly adds a very different vibe to the gentler sound and meaning of the first name they chose. It's giving Spidey & Friends.' Machine edited his Instagram caption, adding a sweet nod to Megan. He updated the caption to: 'Saga Blade Fox-Baker. Thank you for ultimate gift @MeganFox.' Megan also has three kids with ex-husband Brian Austin Green, whom she was wed to from 2010 until 2021: Noah, 11, Bodhi, nine and Journey, seven. Machine, who was born Colson Baker, is also dad to daughter Cassie, 15. Megan and Machine welcomed Saga on March 27, with Machine revealing the news via his social media: 'She's finally here!! Our little celestial seed,' adding that their baby was 'born into 432 HZ' and that her arrival was an 'epic journey.' Fans seem to love the unique moniker, taking to X, formerly Twitter to gush about it - although some did not like it.

Their five-year romance came to an end over Thanksgiving weekend while they were on holiday in Vail, Colorado, according to TMZ. They split after Megan 'found material on MGK's phone that was upsetting, and it made her want him to leave the trip early,' the source said. Machine Gun Kelly, born Colson Baker, left the trip earlier and they have not seen each other since. At the time, an insider claimed that Megan 'just wants to focus' on her pregnancy. The insider told People: 'They tried to make things work for many years. It was exhausting for Megan.' Megan and MGK started dating in 2020 after she split from Brian following 10 years of marriage. They got engaged in January 2022 with the couple briefly splitting in February 2023 but working things through and getting back together - but not getting engaged again. Megan previously revealed she believes she manifested the rapper turned rocker into the person he is, adding that she manifested him when she was four years old. 'He's literally my exact type that I've been manifesting since I was four. I'm also four years older than him. So, I think I made him.' Adding: 'My thoughts and intentions grew him into the person that he is, who knows what he would've looked like or been like if it wasn't for me.' The couple met on the film project Midnight In The Switchgrass in March 2020.
