So, what does "X.A.N.A." stand for?

Yup...post yer ideas here! I think it stands for: Xtensive Artificial Native Approach. Here's why.

(E)Xtensive: means he's able to extend his host's abilities (I mean look at Jim, he wasn't able to split himself in two before, right?!)

Artificial: if u don't know how this fits it, yer an idiot

Native and Approach: he was supposed to be a military program, so that makes sense

Hi Tom - hmm, we have many threads for this already, search in the backlog and you'll find them - the odds are this will be locked.

Also you have to remember that XANA was designed to attack Carthage and possibly protect Lyoko, so that might have a bearing on his name.

His name comes from a mythical place called "Xanadu": A world without danger. It's that simple.

eXternal Applications Native Approach. Hands down. (Well, that may not actually be it, but I think it's the coolest-sounding xD)

Indeed, we have several topics for this already. Please use that search feature and check the backlogs before creating a new thread to avoid making duplicates. Thank you!

Locking. ^^
