Agreed, though most people just call/pronounce it "post gress". Wish it had a better name though.

It’s how nearly everyone pronounces it, and for the most part spells it in common usage. The formal thing IIRC is that the name is PostgreSQL as it was originally a successor to Ingres, and added SQL support later.
