According to this site there are none that begin with W as the letter is missing from their list. There are very few for F and Q also.

And according to my King James concordance, there isn't a single word in the Bible that begins with 'X', and no names beginning with 'W', as Maggie says.

Being a bear of very little brain my chosen version has to be the NIV. Although even in the companion concordance there is (are?) no W's and only one X Xerxes..... King of Persia mentioned in Ezra, Esther and Daniel.

I believe in King James his name is Ahasuerus.
