While one would expect the organization's name to be pronounced "ecks-naughts", there is a reasonable amount of evidence that "cross-naughts" is more correct. In addition to the French and German translations both containing a derivative of the word "cross", the [[X-Yux]] is confirmed via [[Tattle]] as being pronounced "cross-yux". The name "cross-naughts" would also reference the game Naughts and Crosses (i.e. [[wikipedia:tic-tac-toe|tic-tac-toe]]). However, Goombella's Tattle for each X-Naut enemy uses "an" instead of "a" before the enemy's name, thus implying that the "ecks-naughts" pronunciation is an alternate way of saying it. | |||
