Can we have a poll, please mods?

Do you pronounce the letter 'H' as:
  • hay-ch [haitch] (the incorrect, but unfortunately increasingly common way)
  • ay-ch [aitch] (the correct way)

"ay-ch".

'Y' for example, is not prounounced 'y-wiy', or 'yegrek' as some crazy French people might have us believe. Nor is 'W' pronounced 'woubleyou'. Also because it was always the stupid people in class who pronounced it 'hay-ch' and that kind of stuck with me.
