Oh my, this is a fantastic view of life - from the czkawka github page:

  Czkawka is a Polish word which means hiccup.

  I chose this name because I wanted to hear people speaking other languages pronounce it, so feel free to spell it the way you want.

  This name is not as bad as it seems, because I was also thinking about using words like żółć, gżegżółka or żołądź

I had to google pronounciation of czkawka and to me it sounds exactly how i would pronounce it - chkavka or чкавка in Russian

This sounds very much in the spirit of Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz[0]
