- jlgaddis 7y agoFWIW, the Debian GNU/Linux FAQ [0] states: > The project name is pronounced Deb'-ee-en, with a short e in Deb, and emphasis on the first syllable. This word is a contraction of the names of Debra and Ian Murdock, who founded the project. (Dictionaries seem to offer some ambiguity in the pronunciation of Ian (!), but Ian prefers ee'-en.) --- [0]: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/basic-defs.en.html#pronunciation https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/basic-defs.en....
