Well there's no X or J in the Italian alphabet so not sure what you mean. The word is made up. Maybe that's just their slogan?

Maybe. I’m not an expert on Italian brands or anything, but that’s what I had read previously.

the dyslexia in me had to read this 3 times to figure out that it didn't say jerkoff... so maybe it's just not a great name for a company that doesn't cater to the porn or artificial insemination industries.
