jix. Among the most interesting of acronyms is the epony- mous jix, a word coined from the letters of a person’s name. Jix was a synonym for “prudish interference” popular in England during the late twenties and early thirties. Journalists nick- named British home secretary Sir William Joynson-Hicks “Jix” and the word only passed out of use with his death in 1932. |
