Why "Immich"?

[Chiogros]

Hi, what does "Immich" mean?
Thanks :)

[alextran1502]

It is pronounced as "image" :)

Maybe, once it's production-ready (or better slightly before that) it could be wise to change the name to one that better rolls off the tongue. It's always a bad sign if one has to ask how something is pronounced... :-)

But even so, I will continue using Immich, thanks for this great piece of work!

[alextran1502]

I don't think pronouncing "image" is hard 😅

Plus I don't mind to stay unique. Brand like Peugeot, Bvlgari is also dazzling to first time people who know about them on how to pronounce the name 😜

[Cantello]

You are of course right, I still have to think about how to pronounce it and in my native tongue it reads a bit weird. 😜

[alextran1502]

Just curious, how does it sound in your native tongue, and what language do you speak natively?

In my native tongue (Vietnamese) it sounds exactly the same as how to pronounce Immich in English so I didn't think about this very hard 😅

In my native language(Korean),
image is pronounced imiji
immich is pronounced Im Michi😜

[Cantello]

In German I always read it as 'im ich' (=in the me/ego). I would pronounce it like ['ɪm 'ɪ​ç].

[xkx]

I read it as 'Imrich'.

immich in french, double 'm' not pronounced
