It's fair to denote "Mastering Regular Expressions", 3rd Edition,
Jeffrey E. F. Friedl, O'Reilly, 2006, 484pp. + 31 p. index
as the definitive treatise on regular expressions.

p. 27:  Friedl wrote in part:

                   I normally use "regex."  It just rolls right off the tongue
                   (it rhymes with "FedEx," with a hard g sound
                    like "regular" not a soft one like in "Regina")
