  TIL that the "My" in MySQL is not the English word my the Swedish name My, for the daughter of #MySQL co-founder Michael Widenius. ♡ The name My was introduced by Tove Jansson for the #Moomins character Little My, who is named after the Greek letter mu. So you could pronounce My as [ˈmyː] or as [maɪ]. Never mind how to pronounce SQL. MySQL documentation defines the official #pronunciation as “My Ess Que Ell” but the devs in Swedish say "mü-ess-ku-ell". Sources in reply. #linguistics
