I had a friend once who referred to .EXE files as "eeks" files. I always thought that was extremely cute. He was a tech person, not some computer-illiterate, and I think he knew this was his own personal thing and it wasn't common usage. But I thought it was a neat way to save syllables.


I call them "exys" and I use "earl" although probably not 100% of the time. And I'm a tech person.

Another one I use is for unprintable/unpronouncable characters - "gwargers". Don't know how to spell it...
