Actually, in the Age of Apocolypse storyline, the X-Men
were named after Xavier, but I guess we can't count alternate universes, eh?
The "X" originally stood for the "X-tra" powers that the mutants posessed (I swear... This was 1963, so give them a break!); however, it was recently changed to stand for the X-factor in a person's DNA that makes them a mutant.
Boy... such a misleading question! =-]
P.S. Is is sad that the only questions I've gotten 'til now were on pro wrestling and comics? See, Mom? Those weren't just wasted hours after all!
