That may be so. But just because someone is the creator doesn't mean they have control over how people use the name.
Case in point:
Blue Origin wants people to refer to it by the nickname "Blue". But you kind of have to be in the industry to know that. Everyone else just uses the initialism instead, which is most commonly used to abbreviate "body odor".
On a related topic, anyone have an idea of the breakdown of people that say Sequel vs S.Q.L. and are there people that look down on others for their usage? Of course ignoring the opinion of anyone that says Jif.
I have heard that Windows users (or those more influenced by SQL Server) say "sequel" whereas Unix users (or those more influenced by Postgres) say "SQL". Think of how bad "Postgresequel" sounds in comparison to "Postgr-es cue ell". But what about other environments, I don't know.
Yes but you don't get the namer's intent beamed into your brain when you see or hear a word for the first time. To me and a lot of other people it's pretty clearly sql-lite regardless of what the namer wants it to be. Maybe this makes me stupid or whatever but when naming things you also have to account for my stupidity because I share it with a lot of other people.
