A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

I'm suggesting that if you take your logic and apply it to all the letters equally, you'll end up with the changes I listed. If that seems wrong, then the case for consistency isn't as strong as you first suggested.
I understood what you were suggesting, it was just weak.
Americans say "zee", which is comparable to the letters I gave as examples.
between zee and zed, zee makes more sense with it being inline with other letter's pronunciations. What does zed come from?
Admittedly, I do not know the history of the character's development.
