    (Happy cake day! )

    Yes it is, but why not just say the sound of the letter?

    Way-way-way / wee-wee-wee / wuh-wuh-wuh ?

    Even the dub-dub-dub someone else suggested would work.

    No wonder everyone dropped the www. from their urls ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      I’ve no better answer than “It just isn’t done.” Native English speakers at the very least would not interpret that as indicating the letter, they would interpret it as someone stuttering or what they’re trying to say is stuck on the tip of their tongue.
