How, really, do people pronounce PostgreSQL? I've read the politically correct answer, "Post-Gres-Q-L" but it's such a mouthful, such a day's work to pronounce, that there must be a real street pronunciation, or a number of them, that are not being confessed to. They say that SQL should be pronounced "Sequel" and I've even met people who do that. The need for a simple pronunciation with many fewer than 4 syllables seems more urgent for PostgreSQL. "Pig Swill" is an easy guess. It is quite catchy and simple. But I wonder if there are other, perhaps more flattering pronunciations. Do you have a snappy pronunciation and what is it? I'd be interested in what the babble is at your PostgreSQL site.
