    A.H.I. (Ay-Aych-Eye). I thought it was really weird the first time I had a collector refer to the company as Ah-Hee in 1990, (as if it were named after the tuna fish?), and odder that I still hear it on occasion 20 years later. I know the company was Azrak Hamway International as a kid, and it never occurred to me to pronounce it other than as initials.

    Mego I always knew as Me-Go, but one kid insisted on Meg-Oh, even after the commercials.

    Glad you brought it up, thanks.
