IXOYE is a Greek acronym standing for "Jesus, Christ, God, Son, Savior." The letters also make up the word for "fish," the symbol for which has been used throughout the ages, up until today, to represent Christians.

It is said that early Christians, subject to the persecution of the Romans, used this and other code words and symbols to identify themselves to each other and to arrange meetings undetected.
