Just because x can represent a word doesn't mean it has to be pronounced as that word.
I was alwas confused but never actually said it out loud, thank goodness. "Sup Eric Ell? Weird logo if you ask me..." Then I finally learned when I read a wiki page

Exactly. And the debate could be closed at: 'just because x can represent a word doesn't mean it has to be pronounced as that word.'

You're not alone. It eventually clicked for me by watching Clash related YouTube videos.

Then I finally learned when I read a wiki page
Clash Update Wish List: 1. New single player maps (or update the Goblin village loot every season) / 2. Leaders select words to censor in Clan Chat Filter for their clans. / 3. Revenge List Maintenance allowing player to delete attacks &/or make notes / 4. Chat with Rival War Clan in a War Chat (Make a 2nd tab where Global was) / 5. Ban/Block Option to keep certain users from requesting to join your clan
