Dumb question!!

Ok, I wasn't an English major and being that it's not a word that I use in daily conversation, how the hell are you all pronouncing the name of this website when you have to say it to someone?
I can see it pronounced "etchy" ,like bocci ball with the 2 c's. Then there's "ecky", using 2 c's like "stucco". Or "exy" ,using 2 c's like "access". Or "essy" ,like 2 c's in "flaccid" (I know, let's try to avoid that haha). I know a provider that pronounces it "ee-cee", like "easy" only with a "c"?
Anyway,it's Monday and I'm putting off getting to work as much as I can and I'm more than happy to have a trivial distraction today lol!

Right, wrong or indifferent, I have always pronounced it "ee-cee" and several of the providers I have seen do also. Then there has been a couple of providers I have seen that pronounce it "ecky", but that is the only two ways I have ever heard it.

Haha, thanks SN! That post was the usual nonsense I think of when I've not had a whole cup of coffee in the morning lol. Glad you could play along!

I pronounce it eckky. But I have never been asked it before. Interesting question.

Ee-cee

I've heard "icky" a couple of times.

Ding! Right from the source!

Always figured ECCIE is an abbreviation....so I say it letter by letter E-C-C-I-E.
I don't think it's meant to be read out/spoken as if it's in short form/acronym like IKEA (Ingvar Kamprad Elmtaryd Agunnaryd).
BUT if what Biomed1 posted is correct then I'm wrong lol.

Until this thread, I'd never heard it called anything but "ecky".

Yes I know what ECCIE literally means lol. I meant I always figured it was just an abbreviation VS it being an acronym. Should've worded that a bit better. Just because there's a slight difference in something being an abbreviation vs acronym. You don't pronounce one like you do the other (and OP asked how do you say the name of the site) . So...you wouldn't say ECCIE like ec-ky as if it was short form (like an acronym (which is why I used IKEA as an example)) ... just E-C-C-I-E.
