I see that a lot too. I know some kids use the Xx thing because it used to be that "emo"/"scene" kids did it and it just looked cool i guess. They were the most well known for using the trend, but nowadays it's so heavily used that some kids use it in their name because to them it looks 'cooler'. Another reason why they would use this, as some of you already pointed out, is that extra characters can be added to their name if the name they want is already taken.
I'm guilty of using the x trend on youtube. On most sites it's SteelFangs or Steeli but since both were taken when i signed up on youtube i spelled it xsteelix instead.
Personally i don't find it annoying, it's just a way for a child to feel more creative online.

It's extremely annoying and irritating to have people constantly changing their usernames. It honestly needs to stop. There's no reason whatsoever to change usernames unless it's for an important reason. I've only changed my username once, in 2007, when I was 11 years old. It was on here as well. I've been using emily123 ever sicne. (Of course, for some sites I've used something similar. Never changed them though.)

Well,let's review my last name change,because it was was only a mere letter change. Al oha Aleu Al pha Aleu My,my,that's all I did the last time,and why overreact because of one letter.

Aloha Aleu
Alpha Aleu
My,my,that's all I did the last time,and why overreact because of one letter.
I can't find the Past username topic, but YOU DO change your name a lot, I do recall you saying Aloha Aleu is your final username in the topic I can't find. :/ She's not complaining about your RECENT change, she's complaing on ALL of the times you've changed it. EDIT: Alpha Aleu wrote: I've gone through a lot of usernames,but my last one shouldn't be that confusing,Sarabi/Balto to Balto_Sarabi,but in eight more days and counting down,I'll change my name to Charming Jenna. 2 I will be changing my name to Charming Jenna,in two days time. 3 I'm glad you do like the name Charming Jenna,because it's gonna be the last one.(Boy Scout's honor) 4 Another name.
1.Aloha Aleu
2.Alpha Aleu 5 In nine days,I'll be going back to name number eight,Foxy Jenna. 6 When name change time comes again,I'll return to the name Foxy Jenna. 7 Twelve days left,then I'll change the "y"to an "eh". 8 Say goodbye to Foxy Jenna,and hello to Foxy Aleu.
Gah,I think I'll stick with the name Foxy Aleu. 9 Say Aloha(goodbye),to Foxy Aleu,and Aloha(hello),to Aloha Aleu. 10 Aloha Aleu,will be the Final name,unless I go back to an old name.
You get the picture.

I noticed that too. Are you sure it's not a Coincidence? I tend not to notice some things. [Like other people's posts]
