How to pronounce my username

Uhh, so I've been asked this a lot and I guess I'll make a post about it now. Specifically, people aren't sure how to pronounce the "Qsavr" in Qsavr Quest. Now, I don't really know what the correct way would be, but I'll give some suggestions.

First of all, let's split it into three parts Q+SA+VR and explain how I would pronounce each of them:
1) Q = KU (as in quest or cool) or alternatively it can be skipped and not pronounced at all.
2) Sa = SAA (as in salmon or sample) or alternatively it can be pronounced as SAY (as in say or save).
3) Vr = VER (as in version or tavern).

So depending on which of the alternatives you choose it could be read one of the following ways: 
1) Ku-saa-ver
2) Ku-say-ver
3) Saa-ver
4) Say-ver
If you use the last one and pronounce it as Saver Quest, it sounds almost like (but not quite) "Save Request". That one might be my favorite one out of these because it's the easiest to say.

If you have any suggestions please leave them in the comments!
