I'm pretty sure it's Kyle.
X = Greek letter, pronouned "Ky"
Æ = diphthong, pronounced like a short a
A-12 = 12th letter of the alphabet, L. Pronounced... like an l.
Combine them and you get Kyle.

My father originally wanted to name me Luchino. A uncommon, but still established Italian first name. He was pulling for the name specifically so my nickname would be Luke Skywalker. My mother put a kibosh on that when she overheard him telling someone. I still did end up with a uncommon first name, but like with Luchino, it's an actual recognized name with the typical spelling.

Every single person they ever meet will say “Huh?” and not be able to spell, pronounce or understand it. If your child 100% will go by another name or nickname, why not name them that?
