Disney Princess Member Since Day 1 Joined Feb 10, 2000 Messages 2,636 Aug 11, 2012 #13 We say each letter - arr oh eff arr. But we pronounce DVC that way as well. However, even when the resort names are abbreviated, I say the name of the resort. So, if I saw BWV, I would say in my head (or out loud) Boardwalk.

It's funny, it never occurred to me that people might say (or think) it differently than that.
