Is clraik pronounced how it's spelled?

[Lyrichord]

From what I understand, it's supposed to be "Craik" but my brain still calls it "cluhrake" most of the time. C K works too!

I've always called it "C-L-raik". Like I just say the first two letters as if they were letters by themselves, and then pronounce the rest "rake" lmao.

[Nyu]

I pronounce it like "clraik" as its written, but sometimes my brain says "clairk" for some reason.

[Foxglove]

These days I either say "C.K." or "cluh-rake" in my head

There's a recording somewhere of bat and joe iirc, talking about the site and they say Craik! i used to say it c-l-rake also but i switched when i heard the podcast

[SpongeBob]

I have always just said draik (like drake) as if the c and l make a small d.

The jif vs gif debate was eventually settled by the founder of the file type. I guess only the founders have the correct pronunciation. However, my brain pronounces it as "cleric". I'm 100% sure it's not correct, but for some reason that's how my brain reads it.
