Poll: I will pronounce it as

In many dialects of English, the letter's name is zed, reflecting its derivation from the Greek zeta. In American English, its name is zee, deriving from a late 17th century English dialectal form.

Yea.. got that from Wiki.

But choose what you prefer to pronounce it.

Zee.
Australia uses British English so I think it's meant to be pronounced as Zed like how A is pronounced as Ah instead of Ay (That's about the best I can do to put that sound into words.)

I can only ever remember saying Ay...Zee and don't think the other two sound right...

ZED :)

But I say Dragonball Zee. My friend says Dragonball Zed in defiance.

Zed. Except for a certain brand of caffinated beverage called Red-Zee.

Wow, so far votes are even.
I actually expected Zee to win by a long streak.

Zee for me

I used zee when i was little up until one grade school teacher gave everyone poo poo for pronouncing it the american way and not the canadian way.
So I've been using 'zed' since i was youngin.
