tammytoby · 20/01/2019 10:53

Ell o eese

So neither Low or Oh in middle.

tammytoby · 20/01/2019 10:53

And definitely not Loo in the middle Shock

dementedpixie · 20/01/2019 10:57

How do you say 'o' then if not 'oh'?

BramRang · 20/01/2019 11:23

El-ooh-ease. The difference between the "ooh" and "ow" sound that posters are describing doesn't exist in my accent, though. Girl I knew from Surrey with the name definitely pronounced it with an "Looh" sound in the middle, much like Louise.
