[Opinions] Re: Soames
It is hard for me to describe how it is pronounced. The So- is like the so- in soap. The -mes is somewhat like saying Mmm's.
That was the most horrible description of how to say Soames. If anyone can help that would be great!

Is it just like SOHMZ? That would make sense. I wasn't sure if it was all stretched out like SOH-ah-meez, or what. Do you know its origin at all?

I first saw it in the Forsythe Saga series. I have no idea about the origin besides that little point.
