This link captures the confusion about how to pronounce "fsck":

Here's the truth. Ted Kowalski, username frodo, may he rest in peace, was the original author, just down the hall from my office in Murray Hill, and his name for the program had a 'u' where there is now an 's'. Management made him change it for distribution, but they couldn't make him change his pronunciation.
fsckをどう発音するのか問題に終止符。オリジナルの作者がこのツールを作った時はsの部分がuだった。頒布する際に名称を変更したが、発音は本来のままだった。もうお分かりですね。
