It's the same thing when some people say Eye-ran or Eye-raq. I say E-ran and E-raq.

Nobody fucking says Eye-ndia or Eye-taly innit?

I’ve definitely heard people say eye-talian.

Haha. I have too, actually. Bless their souls. 😄

But do you say eye-talics or e-talics for typography?

ih-talic

It's not even a hard E, it's the small i, which I'm guessing are separate letters in Persian like in the Sanskrit family. Like the i in 'thin' or 'into'.

i-Rán, i-Rák

Yes. Just using E va EE or EA.
