the NSIS word

just out of pure curiosity, how do you people pronounce NSIS?

1) N.S.I.S.
2) N-sis
3) Nis
4) (something else)

in the past i found it a bit difficult to talk about NSIS with other people, due to the nature of the "word". i ended up pronouncing it "nis". you?

2.5 I emphasize the n and then say sis, but in the end it still sounds like nis (as in miss but with an n).

#2, N-SIS. I do the same thing with MSYS and such words, simply because SYS sounds better and indicates that we're talking about a SYStem.
