Here’s my list:

xzhibit
malcolm x
deng xiaoping
xavier de rosnay
xander berkeley
xuxa
xerxes (of Persia)

…and if you’re playing the version that allows fictional characters:
xena
charles xavier/professor x

Cute puppies, we call them “puppy.” But ugly dogs, they’re just “dog.” This law of attraction trumps all dictionary definitions, and everyone should begin following this rule in all applicable cases to avoid any confusion when talking about canines.
