Etymologically, the entry records: Named after a thunder god in the mythologies of the Ewe (Xebioso) and Fon peoples of West Africa, with the German spelling to recall the provisional designation 2002 XW₉₃. Root origin matters for spelling because borrowed morphemes (Greek, Latin, Old French, Old English) carry their source-language orthographic conventions into modern English, which is why historical etymology is often the cleanest predictor of whether a cluster like "-ough", "-eau", or "-tion" will appear. For readers arriving here from a spelling check, the authoritative guidance is: the correct English form is Xewioso, spelled X-E-W-I-O-S-O, and any other sequence of those letters, regardless of how natural it feels, is a misspelling in standard orthography.
