Is it "Tree" or "Tre"?

Obviously it's pronounced "tree", but his name is "Treliving", with only one 'e'.

He's also a tall guy, so maybe "Tree" is appropriate, but it also kind of looks wrong.

"Tre" would normally be pronounced "trey", and we know that's definitely wrong, but I'm pretty sure most people here know that's shorthand for Treliving and not Tre Roberson who plays for the Stampeders.

I suppose either is better than GMBT. I don't know why I irrationally hate that; it's clever when you're talking about George McPhee (GMGM, which is the first time I've seen it), but nowhere else do you put the initials of their position followed by the initials of their name. "Hey, GDW made his debut last night, as did RWMC."
