This came to me suddenly during the night:

I keep hearing, from time to time, people pronouncing the Spanish gunmaker AyA as A-Y-A, or, less often but still heard, "aya". The firm is named after the two founders' last names, Aguirre and Aranzabal, thus the AyA. "Y" in Spanish means "and", so the AyA should be spoken as "A and A". Not judging, just saying.

I will admit to being, not OCD, but CDO, lol.
