This change came after a methadone overdose incident a year prior.
In an interview with Vibe in May 2009, the Grammy-winning rapper detailed his addiction, estimating he consumed 'anywhere between 10 to 20' Vicodin daily in addition to massive doses of Valium, Ambien and other substances.

'My heart outside my body. she's everything and more. Scottie Marie Moeller born 4/14/26. Welcome to the world my sweet darling,' Scott wrote in the emotional caption.
'Scottie, in honor of my 'scott sisters.' The women who have given the name and my life so much meaning," she continued, giving a heartfelt explanation for the name choice.

Alaina was born to Kim's twin sister Dawn, and Eminem legally adopted her in the early 2000s after her biological mother reportedly struggled with drug use. Dawn passed away in January 2016 from an apparent drug overdose.
Eminem also adopted daughter Stevie, born in 2002 to Kim and her then-partner Eric Hartter. He officially adopted her in 2005, shortly after reuniting with Kim.
After a famously turbulent history, the high school sweethearts last reunited for a three-month remarriage in early 2006 before finalizing their split in December of that same year.
