Anyone else like the sound of the word NONC?

I find myself repeating it several times whenever I see it. It has such a silly sound.

Anyhoo...back to your regular program of debating the merits of divine spellpower and alter self.

And how are people pronouncing it?

Like knock, but with an n sound before the 'k' sound? "Nonck"?

Or more like nonick, "NON-ick"?

Or in the way that WotC is pronounced "WAHT-see", would this be "NON-see"?

Inquiring minds... :detect:

Silly me. All this time I've been pronouncing it, "IT MUST BE MINE!" :schemes:
Boy, am I embarrassed!

Yeah, I think I prefer noncy as well. Rolls off the tongue nicer than nonk.
