I thought it was meant to be "Postgres-Q-L"

Edit: wow, the naming page says that Postgres-QL is a "weird derivation".

I think you misunderstood what that bullet point is trying to say. It IS "Postgres-Q-L". That bullet point is talking about someone theoretically thinking that the name is logically two parts: "Postgres" and "QL". When really it's "Postgres" and "SQL" and the middle S is elided.

But it is Postgres - QL, because you have Postgres, the server, and its Query Language. Straightforward.

... okay no I was trolling

For what it's worth I've also always pronounced it "Postgres-Q-L".
