You can't spell NoSQL without the word no.
Nor can you spell it without the word os. But I don't think we're talking about a mouth or other external opening.
A lot of people now read "NoSQL" as "Not Only SQL", which seems more positive than negative.
Maybe I've just been living under a rock, but that's the first time I've ever seen "Not Only SQL".
I can't tell if you're being serious or not.
Not Only SQL has been around for at least two years: http://twitter.com/#!/simonw/status/5339626595
I'm not sure who came up with it or when.
That's creative; if I ever find myself backed into a corner and forced to pronounce NoSQL out loud I will borrow that reading.
