The AT-AT walker is pronounced "Ay-Tee Ay-Tee" not "At at" if I hear someone call it that one more time....it's like ATV "All terrain vehicle" AT-AT "All terrain armored transport" WAS THAT SO HARD?!
 
I used to call it "at"-"at". Still do occassioanlly. I always think of it as a term of endearment. It's also similar to calling the HMMWV a Humvee.
 
I was born in '77, even in the movie a voice over the intercom says, " Imperial AT-AT walker". Not atee-atee walker.

Nope. In the movie they are only ever called "imperial walkers." First by the rebel commander in the trench, then over the rebel base intercom. AT-AT is nowhere in the dialog of the film or script.
 
hey all! huh... I didn't realize there is actual debates on how to announce the name of an AT-AT walker. I only became a big star Wars fan in these recent teenager/young adult years and never even knew it was pronounced "at at" and not A T A T (which is the way my nerdiness brought me up to know it as :p)

Honestly, does it matter if, according to records of both sides, it's technically correct both ways? Just my two cents.
