How is Innes pronounced?

[Jooni]

See this suggested quite a lot and I think I like it, but is it "INZ" or "IN-iss" or something else? Anyone have or know one?

I always thought it was the same as Inez. Ih-nez. Don't know if I'm right though!

It's a surname!

Pronounced Inniss. It's a Scots surname.

Innes the surname is IN is. The girl's name is spelt Ines, pronounced in EZ.

I know an Innes, she uses her middle name though, so I'm no help. I only know she's Innes because I've seen her post. I'd never heard of it before that. She's in her 50s.

I'd say in-nez

I know two, both pronounced In-Niz.

Innes is a male Scottish name pronounced IN-iss. It's the anglicised form of Angus.

Ines or Inez is a female Spanish name pronounced in-EZ. It's the Spanish form of Agnes.

*Aonghus not Angus

I agree with PPs.
Innes is usually a surname, pronounced Innis, with the emphasis on the In. Ines is a first name, pronounced Innez, with the emphasis on the -ez.

I know a male Innes. It's pronounced inniss. He's Scottish

I always thought it was Spanish.

I know quite a few. IN-iss.
In Scotland. We did the surname as first name thing for ages before everyone else!

Definitely IN-iss

I know an Innes. Pronounced INiss. I think it means island. Surname or Boy's name.

Ines or Inez is a form of Agnes. Girl's name. Accent on e depending on the language.

Ines is the Spanish version?

In-iss.

I know scottish male Innes - In iss

Also know portuguese female ines - inesh

Can be in-ez in Portuguese as well, depends on the accent/country. Many Brazilians don't sh the s's on the end of words.

Thanks everyone sounds like "IN-iss" is the consensus. I've always read it as "INZ" when I've seen it suggested on here but recently heard the proper pronunciation and quite like it.

Sorry, should have clarified that it's definitely the Scottish male/surname name Innes I meant and not the female name Ines.

Sorry,

Oops not sure what that extra Sorry is doing there!

I had a Serbian friend who pronounced it like 'penis' without the 'p'

There are LOADS in Scotland. Three in DS's boys brigade. Inn-is.

Ines is girl's name in Spanish, Portuguese and French (they use different accents over the 'e'). It means 'Agnes'.

It's our front runner for DD2 as I'm half Spanish.
