C#, C Pound, C???

You might have heard or read of people pronouncing C# as C Pound. This past weekend, I was moving my book shelf from one room to another. My 2.8 year old son was around me. He is speech delayed and going through speech therapy. He utters few less words that his age kids. Recently he started to learn his alphabets and loves to read them where ever he can find it. He looked into my C# book and was able to pronounce C properly, but has no clue as to how to pronounce #. Being a good dad, I thought of giving him a hand by prnouncing 'sharp'. He gave me the weirdest look as he was confused by what I said. I opened the book and started to explain to him, look this is dad's book, the title is C sharp... His little brain could not take it any more started jumping # all together and picking the rest of the alphabets. I know he could not comprehend what I was explaining to him, nonetheless, I was happy to see his speech progress and his love of reading by picking one letter at a time. :)

the 'sharp' symbol is actually four 'plus' signs, so you could also pronounce it 'c-plus-plus-plus-plus'
