    Nope, its ess-kyoo-ell for their servers, they just don't know what they're doing

    And for the most part Katrina, you're doing it right. I sometimes say "kyoo-tee", then correct myself to "cute". My favorite is PostgreSQL - "post-gres-kyoo-ell"

    So.... is it "officially" kyoo-tee or "cute"?

    I always though "sequel" sounded wrong!

    I love saying postresql too :-)

    Well... TT insiders call it "cute". The original name, I believe has been mentioned here, was created because the letter Q looked cool in emacs on slack (.9x or some such). The 't', iirc, originally was a result of Tk, and noone was using a Q as a toolkit name, so the combo was born.

    I don't believe there is any "official" pronunciation though
