Why do British people always write "xxx" after their names?
Last Updated: 03.07.2025 05:06

X or X means kiss. So XXX or xxx would mean kisses. O or o means hugs so xoxoxo means hugs and kisses.
I don't know when this trend started but it was certainly more than 80 years ago and was or is still commonplace in Canada, at least among the elderly.
British people do NOT ALWAYS end their missives with xxx.
