Blu-ray Baby Talk! - Blu-ray Forum

OK, maybe I'm new here...but what's up with the Blu-Ray brand name baby talk?

"Should I buy a Sammy or a Panny?" "How do I connect my Panny to my Yammy?"

Sammy? Yammy? Panny? Sorry, guys, when you talk like that, you don't sound exactly...well, MANNY.

This is pretty common everywhere, not just here. 'Stang, 'Vette, etc. etc.

Nice first post

What's up with DIRL, ID4, NCFOM, POTC etc.. (I can't think of more off my head) anyway

its just easier to say and spell than the full names of these companies. I don't see it as baby talk just nicknames I guess

It's a little-known fact that the actual name of the Sony Corporation is Sonasungsonic. It's just so much easier to say Sony!!!

I don't know how Yamaha every became Yammy..the phonetics don't match up at all (unless I need to start saying YEAH MEH HAW).

Even more confusing is how HD-DVD ended up being the format that went "Blooey!"

that's funny!!! too bad Sony is really Sonī Kabushiki-gaisha, Sony coming From a combination of "Sonus" and "Sonny" (little boy) , both from latin origins.

And Knowing is Half the Battle.
