Seamus Blackely som var med til at skabe den originale Xbox, har afsløret nogle alternative og mere useriøse navne som var i spil, da Xbox'en skulle døbes.
Launch holdet bag den originale Xbox fik nemlig af vide at det navn som de gerne ville benytte (Xbox) ikke var passende til en konsol. Herefter fik Blackely sendt en liste med alternativer som de kunne vælge udfra. Han holdt dog stadig fast i Xbox som vi kender det den dag i dag.
