All the previous answers are wrong. The "X" in X-Men stands for extra. "He dubbed his students the "X-Men," because each possessed an "extra" ability that normal humans lacked (marvel.com).

If you saw the last x-men movie they explained it. Professor Xavier was called professor X for short. After professor Xavier dies they call them selves the x-men in honor of their mentor.

it's never really been defined - in the early comics, magneto referred to them as the "x-generation" that belonged to a different species of human although they were born of natural parents, so i guess that could explain it.
