The son of singer Mariah Carey and comedian-rapper-actor Nick Cannon, Moroccan was born on April 30, 2011, alongside his twin sister Monroe.
According to CNN, Moroccan鈥檚 nickname is 鈥淩oc鈥� and his name has been traced to the top tier of Ms. Carey鈥檚 New York penthouse, called the Moroccan Room because of the decor inspired by that country. Apparently, Mr. Cannon proposed there to Carey with a great view of the city as a backdrop.
So if the room with the view was the inspiration, why wasn鈥檛 the view 鈥� Manhattan 鈥� the name for Roc鈥檚 twin? Well, Monroe was named after Marilyn Monroe because the sex symbol has always been an inspiration to Carey, who bought the superstar鈥檚 white piano from the auction house Christie鈥檚.
