      I never actually had to pronounce it, but in my mind MySQL was “my squeal” for years and years. The first time I talked to another PHP programmer about it I said “my squeal”, and he did a double take, then said “hold on, what did you just say?”. Then we had a pretty good laugh about it after he corrected me.
