And I thought it is m-ex, like reading the letter "x".

It's not immediately intuitive in my opinion, but it does make sense once you remember that other M- honorifics start "Mi". Mister, missus, miss. Then it makes sense to follow, mix.

I think some people use it one way and others the other. I don't think there's one universal correct way.

I've heard it both ways. I'm sure no one would be offended either way you say it.
