Well, actually, despite my comment above, I often pronounce it "q-t" as well. This is so people understand what I'm talking about without additional explanation. Saying "cute" just gives me strange looks. And the reason for that is that many people only ever saw it in writing. This discussion might add to the number of people who know how to pronounce it though!

"Well, actually, despite my comment above, I often pronounce it "q-t" as well."

When I first started promoting Qt to business people years ago, I tried using "cute" and got dismissed out of hand after the initial derisive chuckles. When I started calling it "queue tee", I started grabbing people's attention. It's hard to make people take something new (to them) seriously when it has a comical name.
