* [[Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick 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.

* Xanxus of ''Manga/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.

* 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]]). It doesn't hurt that "Xena" can be translated as the feminine form of the (Doric) Greek word for "stranger" (would be "Xeni" in Attic or Koine Greek), therefore placing her in [[NamesToRunAwayFrom/ThePerson several]] [[NamesToRunAwayFrom/AncientDeadLanguages other]] [[NamesToRunAwayFrom/TheAdjectiveOne categories]] of NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast.
* ''TheYoungOnes'' gives us Vyvyan. You think the mere spelling of his name makes your head hurt? [[TheQuincyPunk Just wait]] [[FieryRedhead ‘til you]] [[AxCrazy meet him.]]

* All of the Organization XIII members in ''KingdomHearts'' have names that are anagrams of their human names with an "X" added, like Lea-Axel, Braig-Xigbar, Dilan-Xaldin, etc. Xehanort follows the same pattern - among many other possibilities, his name without the X is an anagram of "no heart".
