LONDON. — The great debate on how one of the world’s biggest sporting brands is announced has finally been cleared up, by the head of Nike himself. Philip Knight, the chairman of the board of directors at Nike, was sent a letter asking him to circle whether Nike is pronounced as “Nike” or “Nikey”. The person who sent the letter posted a photo of the returned sheet where the latter is circled.
For years, nobody has been able to establish how Nike is pronounced, but Knight finally ended the debate.
Nike was founded in 1964 and gone on to become one of the biggest sporting brands in the world. — Mailonline.
