4. I always pronounce it tit-leist, but then again
I take my cues from Beavis and Butthead (the golf ball washing episode).

7. ah
did they do that? I never watched it.

But seriously... I saw the name and always thought it was tit-leist. Then one day it occurred to me.... hrmm... maybe it's title-ist!

9. I hate to be the one to break it to you,
but a titmouse isn't really a kind of mouse, either.

Sorry.

10. So I'm not the only one . . . except as a young whelp I pronounced it
Tit-less and left the last "t" silent :)
