...But I've only ever heard SSL pronounced as its three letters. Why not like "Cecil"? Or "Sizzle"?

At this point I can’t remember if the first time I heard of SQL was in reading and I just read it as an acronym or if it was audio/visual and that’s how the person said it… Sadly, it’s a mystery I’ll never know the answer to.
