As a father of toddlers learning ABCs, I agree. I've seen some weird side steps, like X-ray Fish for an animal themed one, or Xerox--- a company name. Or just straight up Fox because they couldn't think of Xylophone or any other X words.

But, what's the age appropriate alternative?

You could teach them about the wonderful sport of xarexarebut then you'd have to explain all the basque pelota sports
