His Secret Service codename is Celtic.

His family roots are in Ireland, so it's probably pronounced as Keltic.

I saw a clip from Jan 2020 where a BBC guy with a microphone said to Biden "I'm from the BBC. Could you....".
Biden looked at him and said "I'm Irish" and smiled.
Surely an Irish Catholic wouldn't have a problem with the BBC.

I was told when a student by historian Eric John that the correct pronunciation is the way the football team say it. The 'hard C'/K pronunciation is a hangover from the many German historians interested in Anglo-Saxon English history in the nineteenth century.

You really need to understand that for most of the history of the island of Great Britain it is actually England we're talking about.


My suggestion is you go and find some proper history books.
