Honestly, when you say or type "acin" what is your phonetically preferred way of saying it?

I actually use A.C.I.N in real life conversation but in response to your question, I said it like Cube did. I guess that is down to wording of your specific question.

Vitiate Man.
History repeats the old conceits
The glib replies, the same defeats
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
It never occurred to me to pronounce it like a name. I either say the letters or the full blown name. "Asin" does have an attractive shortness to it though...
This space intentionally left blank
Well, you also say DARPA net, not D.A.R.P.A. net.
And Patriot act, not P.A.T.R.I.O.T. act because that is how Americans roll.
And sometimes I roll with them even though I'm a known anti-American (no really, I'm evil!).
The entire purpose of some abbreviations is to make them easier to say and Acin is really easy to say.
Except that I never say it to anyone except myself in my own thoughts when I talk to myself all alone in my evil anti-American lair.
For ATPG I don't say "Aytypig" though, I say A.T.P.G. and what I always wanted to ask, is it coincidence that it abbreviates both Alexander the Pretty Good and Askthepizzaguy? Are they the same? Brothers? Son and daughter? Father and daughter? Mother and son? Cloned twins?

I pronounce every letter on it's own. A-C-I-N. It is just what I have become used to.

While I generally follow the Cube, there are alternatives:

a-kin.
'Kin' is the dutch word for "chin".
So, translated to English, you are "a chin", which sounds a bit like "itching".
And now you'll all start scratching.
I blame itching.
