How are we abbreviating Xbox One X?

My friends are calling it the "The new Xbone". That's probably what I'm going to go with.

MS does many things right, but their naming conventions always feel like they're trying to play mind games with customers. To which my response is "To hell with your stupid naming conventions".

Sony:

Playstation 1
Playstation 2
Playstation 3
Playstation 4
Playstation Pro

Microsoft:
XBox
XBox 360
Xbox One
Xbox One X

It's like they think people are going to compare consoles based on the name, rather than its merits.

"The Ox" just rolls off the tongue.
 
The name uses the English word 'one' in all regions, not the number 1 which obviously has a different name in different languages. So it should be XOX rather than X1X.
