In 1933, D-X gasoline was introduced. It is theorized that this name was in reference to Diamond  X, suggesting an X-factor or unknown substance in the gasoline that made it superior to others. The D-X name became more prominent, being applied to more than just gasoline. Eventually, by the end of WWII, stations were rebranded from Diamond to simply D-X.
