How do you pronounce GUID?

[destrekor]

Goo-ed.

Most of my coworkers say gwid.

And southern Ohio starts to say "ya'll" because you steal it from KY, the southern hicks. I'm in Northern Ohio...

I'm in NW Ohio, have been my whole life (or in Columbus for school) - I stole it from South Carolina and Georgia.

Most times, "gee you eye dee." Other times, "ugh." (random GUIDs as keys leading to bad data creeping in)

It was originally called SEQUEL, so it's not entirely wrong, when referring to SQL in general.

Damn - I did not know that. Well, then that makes sense.

I pronounce it "Gerbil biter".

No wonder I get so many odd looks.

I was in NW Ohio my whole life, as well, and yeah I would say ya'll every now and then and people would laugh. I was born in KY so I have a small excuse.

NW Ohio = Toledo

Sounds like "squid". GWID is how I pronounce it. I used to say "Goo id". Either is probably fine.
