That's my stab at it.
That's how I would pronounce it as well. I was going to call it Xduino but that names being used for an ARM compatible Arduinio :?

And according to the Arduino homepage, sticking "duino" to the end of some word sounds horrible to Italian speaking people :)

XArduino is a little hard to pronounce, well not difficult but it hasn't got a nice flow. Perhaps it's too late to change the name now, but it could've been called ArduX or Ardu+X (with a silent "+").

2cents - pronounce it Zar-duino (xar = zar?, like "xavier")??

On two occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
