Machine Gun Kelly discussed the poignant meaning behind his baby daughter's name in an interview with Today.
His ex-fiancée, Megan Fox, welcomed the couple's first child in March.
Kelly and Fox split in November 2024 after nearly five years Gun Kelly is opening up about why his baby daughter's unique name. On Friday, the singer appeared on Today, where he explained the moving reason he and Megan Fox decided to call her Saga Blade.
"Her journey, the five years of her culmination of coming, disappearing, coming back again, disappearing, coming back again, she's an epic story and that's what Saga means," Kelly said, seemingly referencing his ex's experiences with pregnancy loss.
"I'm also of Norwegian heritage and so that's a Nordic goddess of storytelling and I think she has a storytelling future ahead of her," he continued. "Megan's a great mom and just killing it and I'm so excited."
Fox revealed that she suffered a miscarriage in her poetry book Pretty Boys Are Poisonous. Within months of getting engaged to Kelly in 2022, the musician dedicated his Billboard Music Awards performance to their "unborn child."

Speaking to WWD in 2023, Fox revealed she that had an ectopic pregnancy years earlier.
"I've had other things that I'm not going to say because God forbid the world will be in an uproar. But I've been through other similar issues, but not with someone who I was so in love with,' she said in reference Kelly.
Earlier this week, the singer—whose birth name is Colson Baker—finally revealed Saga's name to the world with his latest Instagram post.
"Saga Blade Fox-Baker ❤️🔥 thank you for the ultimate gift @meganfox," Kelly captioned a clip of him playing music for his newborn.
MGK is also the father of a 15-year-old daughter named Casie, who he had with his high school sweetheart Emma Cannon. Fox, meanwhile, shares sons Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, 8, with ex-husband Brian Austin Green.
