How to pronounce EAC3TO?

How do you actually say "EAC3TO". I generally just shorten it to Ecto but I'm not sure if that's the widely accepted method.

Oh well, I was hoping there was some cute little name applied to the software to make it easier to refer to but apparently, despite it just passing the point where it becomes more of a recital than an actual name, it is, in fact pronounced 'E-A-C-3-2'.

I guess I'll just have to keep calling it 'Ecto' in my head and hope I catch myself before I start calling it that in conversation again.

(one thing I learned in the process is, when neuron2 tells you something isn't important IT ISN'T IMPORTANT)
