Their official response was that xi was a very common last name and it was necessary to skip it to avoid offending people. So yes, it is exactly what we are all thinking.

nu is skipped because the confusion with "new"
xi is a common surname(about 700'000 people nowdays have it, and countless through history.
this varians name skipping is common practice since 2015...
but the president xi is in chargee since 2012 so probably the reason is still him
