How would you pronounce Romy? I thought it was Row-mee and I thought that was the French too but heard it pronounced now as Roh-me (short oh sound if that makes sense

This thread is from July 2023 so I assume the OP has decided on her baby’s name by now!!

It's short for Rosemary so Row-mee. In other languages eg. French/German then it's a short o like Rommy.

I understand why PPs are saying Row me but I reckon Rom ee as it's short for Romilly? (Which is pronounced Rom i lee)

Romy Schneider -> born Rosemarie, it can be used as nickname for other Rom- names such as Romina and Romola.
I would say whatever person wearing that name choose. I like Romilly nn Milly though.
