How do you pronounce the acronym ECCIE?

[sharkie]

Look, I want to sound like I'm in the know. If I decide to drop a reference to ECCIE in a conversation with my boss or a new client, I don't want it to come out as "eachy" when it should be "etchy". Then I'd sound lame and pathetic (which may be happening already). When the conversation turns to hobbies I need to sound well-rounded. 'Yeah, sure, I fish, I hunt, follow sports, blah, blah, blah, but have you ever banged a 20 year-old Mexican import?' Any thoughts, globetrotters?

I say it like this Eeee Seee

but I would not mention it to your boss or client... what they don't know will not come back to haunt you.

Good topic...relevant, timely, and most important, never been discussed before...oh wait...at least you threw some humor into it to try and salvage it...

[Wayward]

Outstanding.

[futile]

Very Easy. it should be pronounced..... EACY

[Killersalt]

Just call it "icky", that's why I do.

[boardman]

Be careful how you answer this question. It may get the thread closed.

[wallstreet]

to sum up all the redundant threads:

people call it whatever they want, regardless of how much of a stretch it is

BUT

the creator of ECCIE is named becky and suggests that it should be pronounced like "becky" withouth the "b" = "ecky"
