Correct pronunciation of this site?

Had a great session with a local lady. We talked about this site and she pronounced it "Ekkie" and i always thought it was more like "Easy". Just wondered which is the correct one.

It sounds like Becky...so Eccie

ECCIE BECKY rhymes!

Or Becky's Eccie!

There is no incorrect pronunciation of eccie.

I'm so confused. Perhaps the site owner can enlighten us.

I heard it was pronounced something like this, only with more pleasant connotations of where you catch yourself.

In the Main Discussion forum a while back. it said it was pronounced like BECKY and I thought that was kind of silly. Perhaps no one cared to think of all the names that it could be changed to--because now I've heard people make fun of it as ICKY.

I think it should be called "E-C-C" (saying each letter individually) as I hear others shorten it as such and I think it has more class.

Scroll down in this forum announcement to the entry from "The Original Becky" dated 3/6/10.

I just call it "the boards" because "ekky" sounds strange to me and speaking out a 5 letter acronym is too much for casual conversation.

I suppose if I was outside Texas then "the boards" might be vague. But then again, how many providers outside Texas would immediately recognize what "ekky" referred to?

When you form a board, you may call it anything you wish.

Still spell it ECCIE but pronounce it PUSSY.

I always pronounced it as one would the letters "EC". I never heard "ekky" until I came back after my break and felt out of the loop. I thought there was some new board! I suppose I should have asked before I spoke.

Then again, as CoHorn stated, I don't own the board so I don't get to choose the name. I'm just glad the board, whatever it's called, is here. I also like John's choice of calling pronouncing it PUSSY. I just like that word!
