Unfortunate naming from a German perspective. 'Wixen' translates to 'wank/jerk off' here...

  well luckily it is probably based on the surname Wix which is based off the english word "Wicks"

    What, like as in candle wicks? I don't think that makes a great deal of sense?

    There doesn't appear to be much of a story behind the name. "Back at the beach, the three brainstormed what to name their new company. Staying true to their idea, they had two requirements for the name: they wanted a three letter word that started with a “W” and something that was easy to remember" http://www.rewindandcapture.com/why-is-wix-called-wix/ http://www.rewindandcapture.com/why-is-wix-called-wix/
