Pregnant Rihanna and her beau A$AP Rocky were pictured stopping by Cha Cha Matcha in West Hollywood on Wednesday, after their son’s unique name was finally revealed.
The Umbrella hitmaker, 35, showed off her edgy maternity style as she bared her bump in a white crop top and an oversized navy blazer.
She paired the outfit with wide-leg white pants, two-toned heels, and rectangle style shades.
Meanwhile the rapper, 34, looked cool as ever in a long sleeve white top, blue jeans, black cowboy boots and a pair of shades.
Earlier in the day DailyMail.com revealed that the pop star named her son RZA Athelston Mayers, after exclusively obtaining a copy of the little boy’s certificate of live birth.

The Barbados born superstar wore her black tresses pulled back in a ponytail for the outing.
Rihanna had her hands full as she made her way to the matcha cafe, holding a number of items, including what looked to be her son’s blue sippy cup.
The name of her baby son was revealed after she kept it secret for nearly a year.
The child was apparently named in honor of the producer and rapper RZA, the leader of the Wu-Tang Clan.
Rihanna appears to have hinted at her son’s name following his birth on May 13 of last year, as she has worn clothing repping Wu-Tang Clan multiple times since giving birth.
Fans had recently speculated that the little boy might have been named Noah, but there were few indications of his true name.
Notably, the certificate of live birth indicates that RZA was given his father’s middle name of Athelston.
However, Rocky’s middle name has previously been listed by multiple outlets as ‘Athelaston.’

Under the radar: Rihanna and her partner A$AP Rocky welcomed the baby boy on May 13 of last year, but she has so far kept his name a secret from her inquisitive fans
Big fan? The extent of Rihanna’s fandom for RZA and the rest of the Wu-Tang Clan isn’t totally clear; pictured April 15 in LA
The certificate of live birth also indicates that RZA was born at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
One of Rihanna’s recent hints about her son’s secret name was on April 5, when she was seen carrying the beaming boy while wearing a baggy black Wu-Tang Clan top as she was seen leaving a meal at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica.
The Umbrella singer wasn’t particularly subtle on August 12 of last year, nearly three months after she gave birth, when she stepped out in New York City in a baggy white RZA T-shirt.
The extent of Rihanna’s fandom for RZA and the rest of the Wu-Tang Clan isn’t totally clear.
Her partner Rocky is definitely a fan, though, as he previously collaborated with Raekwon from the rap group on the 2015 song Fly International Luxurious Art.
A$AP Mob, the collective that Rocky belongs to, also earned comparisons to the legendarily hip hop group early in its existence.
Like Wu-Tang, it features a string of high-profile core members, along with peripheral members who are featured less frequently.
RZA almost had an opportunity to collaborate with Rihanna, but on screen instead of in the studio.
Wink wink: One of Rihanna’s recent hints about her son’s secret name was on April 5, when she was seen carrying the beaming boy while wearing a baggy black Wu-Tang Clan top as she was seen leaving a meal at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica
She gave them all the clues: The Umbrella singer wasn’t particularly subtle on August 12 of last year, nearly three months after she gave birth, when she stepped out in New York City in a baggy white RZA T-shirt
Back in 2008, the rapper told MTV News — which is now being shut down by Paramount Global after a 36-year run — that he hoped to film a remake of the 1985 kung-fu comedy The Last Dragon with Rihanna appearing in it.
She would have taken on the role of a video show host and singer, much like in the original film.
‘That’s the one I’m rooting for,’ he said of the Barbados-born songstress. ‘We’re keeping that same concept of the girl being in the music business.’
However, in a fit of particularly bad taste, RZA later suggested to XXL in 2009 that Rihanna’s ex Chris Brown should star with her in the film, even though he had beaten her severely enough to require a trip to the hospital just months earlier.
The film, which had already cast Samuel L. Jackson, never came to fruition.
It’s unclear if Rihanna plans to be as secretive about her second child’s name.
She revealed that she and Rocky were expecting again when she debuted a new baby bump during her show-stopping Super Bowl halftime performance on February 12 in Glendale, Arizona.
During her stunning appearance at the Met Gala with her boyfriend, Rihanna shared with ET that her latest pregnant was ‘so different’ from the first one.
‘No cravings. Tons of nausea. Everything’s different, but I’m enjoying it,’ she explained.
She added that she was ‘in love’ with her littlest one. ‘I’m obsessed and I don’t even feel guilty about it,’ she said.
On record: Rihanna’s partner Rocky is definitely a Wu-Tang, as he previously collaborated with Raekwon from the rap group on the 2015 song Fly International Luxurious Art
What might have been: Back in 2008, RZA told MTV News that he hoped to film a remake of the 1985 kung-fu comedy The Last Dragon with Rihanna appearing in it; seen April 5 in Santa Monica

Rihanna is being similarly tight-lipped about baby number two, and she has not yet revealed its sex.
Some fans thought she might have hinted that she was expecting a girl after she was seen looking at pink baby clothes last month.
However, she had also been spotted looking at girl clothes prior to welcome RZA, so she might have been shopping for someone else’s baby.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have been friends and collaborators for more than a decade, and they even attended red-carpet events together in recent years, but it wasn’t until late 2020 that they officially became a couple.
