What does it mean? My grandparents used to call me that when I was very young, they spoke German fluently even though they were born in the US. I knew it was a "term of endearment" but am curious as to the rough translation in English.

You are very hard to VOX about/to. "Nine-nine-nine-zero-zero-zero, check six!" or "Triple nine triple zero, look out" and so forth. It's NOT a name conducive to easy speech.

To my mind I only say it one way. I'm not always right with pronouncing strange words, but I always had a good grasp saying words I was unfamiliar with after just reading them, as a kid.

I say it as j'hee (G said like Jelly, hi said like hee, so saying the Gee from Gee Whiz, only with a slight H sound in there.

Just shout "number guy, six!"

On the other hand,  this will sometimes make 50% of all pilots in range doing evasive moves, but itīs not your fault they dont have a proper name... :D
