Please, "Pound sighn" was my father's name. You can call me "hashtag"
Looking sharp runs in the family.
Surely # was previously ‘hash’ or ‘number’ sign? The pound sign is, as it ever was, £.
Either way it’s still two syllables.

Grandpa was called Octotherp.
The real (read original) name for this sign is “Octothorp”.
