      No. They aren't saying that "age" sounds like 'h'. They're just close enough that any acoustic imperfections in the room (or the body of either person) could cause one to be misheard as the other.

            The word 'age' kinda sounds like the letter H. Which is why the patient spelt put the rest of thier first name instead of stating hiw old they are.

            Took me a minute to get, but figured I'd help others get the joke cause it got a chuckle out of me once I did.

                    But in what field of work does H mean Age?

                    Edit: I don’t have how you get from Age to H

                    Edit 2: I got it below. I guess the redditors are here who don’t know how downvotes are supposed to work.

                        I feel like my previous response kinda covered that. The patient didn't hear "age" and think "oh, when he said age he obviously meant h". They thought "he said h". The word "age" never entered the patient's mind.

                            Ache doesn't sound like H, it sounds like ake. When we say age it sounds like eidg, which might sound somewhat similar to aitch.

                                          I've heard some either Australian or British or both that pronounce H as something close to Hayche. Using a similar accent, and making it a bit hard to hear by mumbling or something, Hayche and age can sound similar.

                                          Hayche is of course made up, but that's how it feels to me to write it, but I'm no linguist, and I don't know how to write in pronunciation guides.
