  1. I am not Charles Xavier.
  2. I am not Xanthippe.
  3. I am not Xena, Warrior Princess.

IQ1: Are you a professional wrestler who plays trombone with The New Day?
IQ2: Did your son Leucippus kill you after you slew your daughter when you saw them in bed together?
IQ3: Are you the wife of Asclepius, Greek god of medicine?

Take a DQ for #1.
#2: I am not Xanthus.
#3: I remember Aesculapius/Asclepius’s wife being Epione. If I’m wrong, take a DQ.

For this category, I think middle names should count, if often used.

IQs:

Were you a former Marine Corps commandant who endorsed GHWB in 1992?
Were you Joyce Davenport’s longtime lover?
Are you a key figure in Scientology?

Xavier Woods, correct, I have no idea why I thought her name began with X

DQ: Real?

Take 2 DQ’s for the first two.
I think Tim beat you to #3, with his question about Thetans.
I agree about middle names.

DQs:

  1. Real

IQ1: Are you a Phantom Zone prisoner because you killed dozens of patients while performing forbidden cryogenics experiments upon them?
IQ2: Are you one of Achilles’s horses?
IQ3: Are you a white furred alien titan who fought the Incredible Hulk frequently?

  1. I am not Dr. Xadu.
  2. I am not Xanthus.
  3. I almost picked Xemnu the Titan but didn’t.

You would have been correct. I’m taking the DQ anyway.

DQ: Alive?

Well, sure you can, IF you have a name starting with X to go with that question.

IQ1: Were you the paramount leader of China from 1978 to 1992?
IQ2: Are you a Portuguese missionary Saint also known as “Apostle of the Indies” and “apostle of Japan”?
IQ3: Are you a professional wrestler who’s real name is Sean Waltman?

Look, our options are limited here with X. We’ve accepted one namers before. I’m almost out of X names to ask.

Yep. St. Francis Xavier I am. Told you it would be quick.

1 was Malcolm X, correct on Xenophon, 3 was Xenu (of Scientology fame)

I had considered Francis X. Bushman. Would he have been too obscure?

Congrats, KO!

I’ve heard of Bushman but couldn’t have placed him.

Way to go, KO!
