r/etymology on Reddit: Why is the letter h pronounced “aitch?”
September 18, 2024 -
Every other consonant (except w and y I guess) is said in a way that includes the sound the letter makes. Wouldn’t it make more sense for h to be called “hee” (like b, c, d, g, p, t, v, and z) or “hay” (like j and k) or something like that?

Because the sound [h] disappeared in Late Latin, so the previous name "ha" (analogous to "ka" for ⟨k⟩ which became English "kay") was indistinguishible from "a". For some reason a new name "acca" was invented (still present in Italian), which regularly became "ache" in French, and with the way that it was pronounced in Old French and the Great Vowel Shift in Middle English, its pronunciation regularly became the modern "aitch", although the spelling was changed probably to avoid confusion with "ache" = hurt.

A lot of people here in Australia call it 'haitch.' Feels like it could be the majority, but I don't have data.

Why does the letter 'h' exist? Is it pronounced anywhere? - Quora
Answer (1 of 10): In standard U.K. English, the “h” at the beginning of a word is generally pronounced, although there are a few exceptions where the “h” is silent, notably “honest”, “honour” and “hour”. I believe that Americans pronounce “herb” with a silent “h”, but in the U.K. we pronounce it....

How do you pronounce the letter "H"? /eɪtʃ/ or /heɪtʃ
July 4, 2023 -
First of all I'm not confused about how this letter is pronounced. I've been taught it's the former pronunciation all along and none of the dictionaries recognise the latter. But I observed there has been an increasing surge of people, many YouTubers included, that adopted the /heɪtʃ/ pronunciation, which vexed me to no end. I even saw some teachers of English pronounced the letter like that, which is alarming to say the least.

I pronounce it "aitch" but I think British people say "haitch"

I have never heard someone from the US pronounce it in the latter form, except as a joke over-Britishism. It is relatively common in the UK. Both seem to be usual forms, and I imagine you'd be understood most of the time with either as well. I'm not sure if you're joking or just being a little over formal, but to find a pronounciation "vexing" or "alarming" is a somewhat excessively strong response, I think.
