Waypoint naming
Waypoint names (such as for Victor airways) often seem random, obscure, or weird and are sometimes not readily pronounceable (at least for non-native speakers of English).
I certainly don't want to make a possible trivial topic complicated, but I'm genuinely curious about the following:
1. Who's in charge of naming them (US, UK)?
2. What's the basis or guidelines for naming them? In other words, is there a naming scheme or any other rules or logic to it?
3. Are there rules / expected way to pronounce them, or "just as close as a native English / American speaker would say it"?
