* Xellos (Merry demon from ''TheSlayers'')
* Xanxus of ''KatekyoHitmanReborn'' is the incredibly badass leader of the Varia, an elite assassination team primarily employed by the most powerful mafia family in the world. He has some [[http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/Green09/01-1.jpg amazing full-body scars]], and he spends most of his time throwing blunt objects at his subordinates and breaking their faces with tables.

* Niv-Mizzet (of ''MagicTheGathering'''s Ravnica block; a dragon who was also a MadScientist, so you ''know'' he's dangerous, and in combination with a single card he can start an infinite damage loop)

* Hugo Drax from the ''JamesBond'' [[Literature/[[Moonraker}} novel]] and movie ''Film/{{Moonraker}}''
* Xeno (Xenomorphs, better known as the aliens in the movie ''Film/{{Alien}}'') This one might be averted by simply being proper nomenclature. "Xeno" means stranger, and it has a very strange ''morph''ology.
* Xander Drax, of ''Film/ThePhantom'' film. Who? ''"X-A-N-D-E-R D-R-A-X, Xander Drax, begins and ends with the letter X."''

* Galbatorix from the ''InheritanceCycle'' is a name you give you child if you ''want'' him to grow up to be an evil emperor. It's ''possible'' that Galbatorix chose the name, but why is beyond most people; it doesn't roll off the tongue and sounds generically evil. You'd think someone who wanted to take over the world would ease people into it by picking something which sounded nicer. And if Galbatorix is indeed his given name, then he is fully justified in wanting to kick some ass--which raises the question of why he was let into the Dragon Riders.

* This also applies to Axel Almer in ''SuperRobotWars Original Generation ''2, but [[HeelFaceTurn not so in Original Generation Gaiden]], seeing that his non-[=OGs=] OG 2 personality is quite of a JerkAss, and a dangerous one at that.
* Sort of applies to Axl of ''MegaManX 7'', but [[TheScrappy that's to the audience only anyway]].

* [[OrderOfTheStick Xykon]], self named for the Xtreme Kool Letterz quotient. Gets (more) homicidal whenever someone spells his name with a Z by mistake - [[spoiler:Zs are for pussies]]. Note the suspicious similarly of the name to the compound [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zyklon_B Zyklon B]], used by the Nazis in death camps. Presuming this was intentional, it provides a good clue to Xykon's general nature.

* Lampshaded in ''Discworld/UnseenAcademicals'' with Dr. Hix, who changed his last name's spelling from Hicks to Hix because a man with a skull ring would have to be mad, or shall we say, even madder, to pass up the chance to have an X in his name.

* Xena (the [[XenaWarriorPrincess Warrior Princess]]).
