Nope - no 'x' in Spanish - "The state's name derives from t¨¢yshaʔ, a word in the Caddoan language of the Hasinai, which means "friends" or "allies"." according to Wikipedia. I believe I remember the Caddo source fro the Texas history classes, too. The Spanish spelling was Tejas.

No X in Spanish? Since when? When was it removed from their alphabet? So, what do they do now with MeXico?

Not kidding - many Mexican names are Aztec and Maya, including Mexico, named "in reference to the name of the Nahua Aztec tribe, the Mexica."

Pick up a Spanish dictionary, and see if you can find a word with an 'x' in it, that's not a Mexican Indian word. You can't

The producers of Corona's similar rival Sol, the brewing company Moctezuma, of Guadalajara, Mexico, did once extend an invitation. The attraction for me was to see the brewing of their slightly more characterful beer Dos Equis, in its amber form. I was interested because its color and hint of maltiness makes it a vestigial reminder of a Vienna-style lager. At the time, they also had a fuller-colored version under the label Tres Equis, which was more obviously malty.That product no longer exists,
