Xylophone: fun, colorful, easy for a kid to remember as a cute little instrument
Xenon: An inert gas used in… MRI scans, I think?
X-ray is probably the only other ‘X’ word with more real-world representation than xylophone, and as pointed out above, that’s not quite representative of how the letter is used phonetically in the rest of the language.
By “real-world representation”, I mean “how often the word is actually used in the real world.” There are hundreds of trillions of neutrinos passing through you all the time, but I’d still think “nest” is a better word for kids.

Xylem is a mojor component of almost all the plants you see. I’m not sure how much more real-world representation you can get…
