Have you ever met/known anyone whose first or last name began with the letter X?

Years ago a co-worker gave birth to a child and named him Xavier. That’s the only one.

Good memory jogger!

I had forgotten all about The Happy Hooker!

Usually just Asian folks with names like Xin, Xu, Xialong, etc.

I know a couple Xavier’s and a Xander, but that’s it.

Xavier

I actually went to high school with a guy named Charles Xavier, like the X-Men.

For those of you who knew (or know) someone named Xavier, please answer this follow-up question, if you don’t mind:

Which way was/is his name pronounced?

1. ZAH vee air

2. ex AY vee air (ay pronounced as in pay)

3. HA vee air

4. ZAY vee air

Thanks!

I was going to snark about her being a “Xu specimen,” but I thought better of that, and decided that I wouldn’t.

So I won’t.

I’m sure that Stratman37 will, however, because he will see that I am refusing to engage in such a cheap display of humor.

xina pronounced zena. like the princess warrior.

Xothil (pronounced so-chee).

I knew a guy online called Ximin, he was of Chinese origin or nationality I think UK resident though.

I have a Chinese friend named Xiao (pronounced like the TOW in tower)

Nobody’s mentioned Malcolm X yet?

The Xavier I knew of was pronounced as your #2 example.

I know a girl named Xiomara (pronounced “SEE-yo-MAH-rah”).

I know a family with the last name Xedis, pronounced like exodus.

Malcolm X was born Malcolm Little, and I don’t recall if he ever legally changed his surname to “X,” or not.

Used to work with a Xavier – think that’s the only one I’ve known.

My son’s name is Xander Atticus. :)

I go to school with an Xavier (He pronounces his name EX-zay-vi-er) and I once knew a woman named Xi (pronounced ZEE).

I have a secretary named Xhevka, pronounced like a J
I know a man named Xhevit who works as a mechanic

I work at a hotel and give people guest registrations and ive seen just about every name there is (not really). I’ve seen Xochitl, Xavier(a), Xana, Xorriene (or something like that)
i can’t recall last names though there must be some
actaully my name is alex and people call me Xander but not as much anymore…

Xavier was a mans man I once crushed on.
