We have friends that recently named their son Xavier. Bit of an odd choice I think...mostly because I can't decide if it's pronounced EX-ay-vee-er or Zay-vee-er LOL
ReplyDeleteX is a difficult one. I think it might be because we find it so hard to pronounce.
ReplyDeleteX names are interesting, I always pronounce them with a Z, but when names have a different origin that has to be taken into consideration. I like your A-Z idea, I am constantly looking for unique character names, which also suite the person.
ReplyDeleteWow...I'm amazed at your X-Men and X-Women. When this is over, you will have quite a glossary of names to fit any character you can think of for any genre and from any planet.

We have a friend named Xander, short for Alexander. I like that.
ReplyDeleteGood job with your X names! Man I am struggling on my X post now :)
