Sex chromosomes are as well termed as allosomes (that is, the other chromosomes which are not sex chromosomes are termed as autosomes).

Sex chromosomes get this name since they have genes which determine the sex (female or male) of an individual. Sex chromosomes also contain genes associated to other biological functions.
