|  How would you pronounce... How would you pronounce the word "Queatrix"? The reason I'm asking is because a lot of people that have actually said the word to me say "qeetrix" rather than the real thing, so I'm thinking of changing it to "quaytrix". |

| Corollary/piggybacking/thread derailment: how do folks mentally pronounce my last name? I've probably heard 'em all, but now I am curious. As far as I care, there are two correct answers.

| 'Queatrix' rhymes with 'theatrics'.
