Will I ever learn how to spell Sekoya?

[svenmany]

I guess I have a year till the next macOS name.

 

[EllieCat]

Sequoia?
Autocorrect fixed it.

 

[Nermal]

Just call it 15.

 

[Chuckeee]

Just call it 15.

15 different spelling?!? Wow

When Sonoma was announced, I had trouble recalling it, “Is it Sonoma or Somona?”

I'll just say 15 point whatever version. Easier than typing the name or relying on auto-incarrot.

Yet some people here posting in forums get confused between iOS 14 and macOS 10.14 Mojave and macOS 14 Sonoma same with iOS 15 and macOS 10.15 Catalina and macOS 15 Sequoia

I can't wait for macOS 16 Hueneme. It will be fun explaining the pronunciation of that one to everybody.

I was thinking La Jolla but Hueneme is even better

911 Operator: 911 what's your emergency?

Me: A man's been shot. I need an am-boo-lance.

911 Operator: Where are you at?

Me: I'm on Sycamore Street.

Operator: Sir you're going to have to spell that.

Me: S-I-C... S-Y-K... S... Tell you what, I'll drag him over to Oak street and meet y'all there.

Here are the national parks in California:

• Channel Islands National Park
• Death Valley National Park
• Joshua Tree National Park
• Kings Canyon National Park
• Lassen Volcanic National Park
• Pinnacles National Park
• Redwood National Park
• Sequoia National Park (inspiration for macOS 15 Sequoia)
• Yosemite National Park (inspiration for OS X 10.10 Yosemite)

So Apple still has quite a few to choose from if they want to use park names.

Which macOS version will be named Death Valley?

If you break it down, it’s not so complicated.

Sequo + ia

Yeah, I’ve been waiting for La Jolla a long time.

 

[HDFan]

I do wish they had chosen a name that started with a different letter. I'm going to be constantly confusing Sonoma and Sequoia.

Se
qu (u comes after q usually)
oi

After the BigCat vesions, macOS just became numbers to me.
I'm not particular familiar with the all landmarks Apple refer to now, so I just deopped it.

I wonder what Jobs had transitioned to though, surely something more fun.
Ah well, my Mac's work though.
Hope for more inspiring invention when Cook is gone though.

Same here. When people use the code names, particularly for older versions, it throws me for a loop. If they say "I'm using 12.6" or "I'm on 10.14" then I can immediately think "a couple of years old" or "about five years old". When they say they're on Big Sur, I have no idea how old it is. I'm not even 100% sure that that was one of them!

I was a terrible speller, then became a very good one, and now going back to terrible. Full circle. No matter how many times I use it, I cannot seem to remember how to spell prairie. (I got it right this time.)

 

[Adora]

I always liked to use the numbers only and was never interested in the names. But somehow I know almost all of the them including their number, at least until back to Panther, although my first Mac came five versions later with Mountain Lion.

 

[svenmany]

I still have

I still have my Jagwa installation disks.
