Hi, 
I recently had the same discussion QGIS!  I ended googling for a conference with the original creator of the project to settle the discussion.  He uses 2 different pronunciation in the same conference.  I suggest you do the same.

As an almost perfectly bilingual person living in Canada (French but grew up in an anglophone community) I use our “project” pronunciation with an “o” as in ‘The car was towed.’ I can imagine some people pronounce the o as an “aw” or broad ‘o’ as  in ‘I dodged a bullet!”

Using « Sally English American »   Copy ˈprodʒ to hear what I say.

Tomato Tomato!!! :)
