  I hope they name it something that starts with X, so it can finally be the long-mythologized Planet X.

  Planet X stands for planet 10, which was used for a hypothetical tenth planet beyond Pluto, but since that one is no longer considered a planet 9 would be more appropriate. Or Planet IX, so you still got your X. :)
