The appropriate way to pronounce it is ‘nook’.

Re: Fantasy Team Name
Yes the pacifier is pronounced Nook. Technically. But everyone has always pronounced his nickname as Nuke, going back to his college days. His twitter handle is NukDaBomb as well, if that gives u any inclination as to how he pronounces it himself.Shcritters wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 12:44 pmHopkins got the nickname because of pacifiers he liked as a baby.Weknownothing86 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 5:13 amIve been told its Nuke, and laughed at because i pronounced it Nuck at first.

Re: Fantasy Team Name
Am I the only one who doesn’t see how Nuke and Nook would be pronounced differently?

Re: Fantasy Team Name
I would pronounce both Nook and Nuke like “Nuclear.” Are we saying Nook is like “Book” with an N? Typically double “oo” is a drawn out sound like an owl “hoots.”

Re: Fantasy Team Name
Are we really surprised Nuk is pronounced that way? We live in a society where many people believe 'woke' is an adjective.

I see it now for sure. I was trying to follow the debate and was totally lost because I read it in my head with the same pronunciation (which I do think was at least somewhat reasonable). Not above looking dumb though, lol.
