X's creators hope that it will evoke neither a type of cherry nor a strip club on The Sopranos TV series but rather a sound — the ringing of a bell that signals the “aha” moment when one finds an answer.
The name is meant to conjure “the sound of found” as X helps people with complex tasks like shopping for a camera,travel plans etc. Identify X!!

Solve for X and Y!!
Once when Y was in San Francisco in a coffee shop he was thinking about naming his new venture X, and then the waitress came and he asked "do you know about X" And she said yes. He then asked what do you know abot x, and she said "Open Sesame". Then
he went onto the street and found 30 people and asked them, ‘Do you know X’? People from India, people from Germany, people from Tokyo and China… They all knew about X." X is not a thief. X is a kind, smart business person, and he helped the village. So…easy to spell, and globally known. X opens sesame for small- to medium-sized companies". Thats how Y came to name his hugely sucessful venture as X. Identify X & Y.
Shrey and Chakru got it right as usual ...... it is Jack Ma and his alibaba.com
