While you are absolutely right about the 'S' you made a mistake
concerning the other names, just type
man X
and you will see:
The X Consortium requests that the following names be used
when
referring to this software:
X
X Window System
X Version 11
X Window System, Version 11
X11
This means X may *not* be called XWindow either.
