Dark Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 [quote name='Opalmoon' timestamp='1297020872' post='4993338'] Aqua and awkward aren't pronounced the same way. [/quote] It's technically pronounced "awkword". But aqu and awk are pronounced the same way, which is what I am getting at. [quote name='Tom.' timestamp='1297020959' post='4993345'] IQ = Ikjew Yeah, Q is just useless. [/quote] Acronyms and names should still be able to use the letter "Q", however. Words should be restricted. Since IQ is an acryonym for intelligence kwota, we'd either have to change it to IK or leave it IQ. I prefer the latter. And for names, you can use whatever the hell you feel like. I'm naming my kid "--?!~@@", anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
