The Chi Rho Symbol is an ancient Christian symbol, a Christogram made by overlaying the initial two letters (in capital) of the Greek word 'Christos' meaning 'Christ'. Pronounced as 'KEE-roe', the monogram looks to have been formed with the English alphabets X and P.
In fact, it is the Greek alphabet 'chi' that resembles X and 'rho' that looks like P. The Chi Rho symbol represents both Christ and Christianity and exists today in several variations.
It is also behind the practice of abbreviating 'Christ' in Christmas to 'X'.
