Initially, X was a company that made specific wooden products. As it started to
expand, the founder of X switched the material of choice from wood to plastic and
started using an Injection Moulding Machine. With advancement in technology, the
efficiency and quality increased drastically, so much so, that X’s products are
accurate up to 2 μm! Less than 20 out of a million fail the quality standard, and
nearly 125 million are made everyday. The dimensions of the product have not
changed since the 1950s. Hence, even those produced today would perfectly fit the
old ones.
ID X.

X(derived from x) gets its name because its purpose is to x. But when X was
invented the initial motive was to y which is literally the opposite of x.
Consequently the inventor of X initially named it Y(derived from y). Initially
X were made of tin so they can be deformed easily but now they are usually
made of fibreglass with a rubber at bottom.
Interestingly Electric vehicles may seem like a modern advancement, but
we’ve been driving them—and more importantly x(ing) them in form of X.
Give me X/x and Y/y.

XY is a children’s game which can be called a simple variation of the game
of tag. The game is played in water where the player playing as “It” is
prohibited from using their vision. “It” shouts out the word X and hears for Y
from the other players to estimate their locations. XY also happens to be a a
medieval explorer, and thus it is said that the game is named so because the
famous XY had no idea about where he was going. In truth the game is
unrelated to the person in question.
Name XY.
