In regards to filling the "X" name in line with Poisonous plants, I found this list from Cornell: http://www.ansci.cornell.edu/plants/index.html
I knew the common name would not produce an "X" letter name, but perhaps its scientific name would:
The plant known as "Cocklebur" -- its common species is poisonous to animals and livestock. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocklebur
It's genus name is Xanthium.
Anyway, just offering a suggestion.
