Question

This may seem really silly to you, I admit, but when discussing the Model-View-ViewModel pattern with my teammates, it’s very awkward to pronounce the term. “ModelViewViewModel” or “Emm-Vee-Vee-Emm” don’t exactly roll off the tongue. Especially when you’re not a native English speaker.

So I’m looking for an alternative. Something quick and easy to say.

Current suggestions are:

M2VM – “emm two vee emm” (feels smoother to say)
M2V2 – “emm two vee two” (doesn’t quite fit, but it’s inspired by H2G2 :))

Any more ideas?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Why not say “Move-em” instead of MVVM. When answering someones question about pattern to use, you could then simply answer “We can Move-em”.
