The "X" in "Christmas" comes from the Greek letter "chi," which is the first letter of the Greek word for Christ, "Christos." The letter "chi" was traditionally used as an abbreviation for the word "Christ," and the "X" is a more recognizable version of that letter. So, in essence, the "X" in "Christmas" is a shorthand way of referring to Christ's birth.
