Y has a vertical part, just like its axis. X is the other one.
This is like a weird personal thing that I can't even explain. For whatever reason, the Y axis becomes labelled as X in my mind in random situations. And I use charts (and other data visualizations a lot).
The funny thing is when I am thinking of X, I don't have this urge to call it Y. If I am looking at horizontal, X is the first thing that comes to mind. But not with Y.
