These names are anagrams of the names of their original identities with the insertion of an "[[Recusant's Sigil|X]]" as both a symbol that they have rejected their old identities and as a callback to the [[χ-blade]].<ref>[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania|'''''Kingdom Hearts II'' Ultimania''']], '''Interviewer:''' "Previously you said 'The members of the XIII Organization have something hidden in their names', can you reveal the answer to us now?" / '''Tetsuya Nomura:''' "Before this, I've mentioned that when their names are spelt in Roman alphabets, there will surely be an "X", right? The truth is that when the "X" is taken away, the alphabets that are left behind is an anagram of the members' real names when they were humans."

Then the Nobody Xemnas was born, and the Organization which he creates takes a lot of things from his memories, as a human. But as Xemnas had two people who he was, Terra and Master Xehanort, he takes from both of their memories. [...] Xemnas gives Organization members names with an X in them. This has something to do with Master Xehanort's interest in the χ-blade."

In the naming ritual, the name of the [[Nobody]]'s "other" appears before them in translucent, iridescent [[light]], then an "X" drops down and the letters re-arrange themselves until they form a new name. | In the naming ritual, the name of the [[Nobody]]'s "other" appears before them in translucent, iridescent [[light]], then an "X" drops down and the letters re-arrange themselves until they form a new name. | ||
