Eych, or "Aitch", for me; the correct way :p:

It is really not a matter of personal opinion - the right pronunciation is "aitch" (look it up in the dictionary, if you like).

Haha, strange topic to think of at 1am - you must be bored :wink:

I say 'heych'. I know 'eych' is supposedly the right way, but I just think it sounds ridiculous...sort of forced.

I say it with a H...I don't care that apparently that's 'incorrect'. For me, the names of letters should have an emphasis on the actual letter.

Also, I'm from Lancashire, so even if I try to say it with out the H, it sounds like there's one there anyway!!

I usually say 'aitch,' but if I'm spelling a word, I think after some letters 'haitch' sounds better. I can't think of which ones now, but I know I do sometimes say it like that.

Oh my god, I'm losing my mind. I've just sat here for like 5 minutes trying to figure out what the hell you were on about, then I read the first part of the title. >.<

I thought it was some sciency word.

Yeah, I'm gonna go sleep. Though for the record I say Haych =D
