HelpRe: Romilly
in reply to a message by Elinor
Emma Thompson's daughter's middle name is Romilly. I'm wondering how it's pronounced... rah-mih-LEE or roh-mih-LEE or roh-milly... *is confused*

In the case of the journalist, it's pronounced ROM-i-lee.

clarify please?
You mean, like to rhyme with 'homily'?
Or like 'roamily'?

Rhymes with homily.

Yep
'Rom' as in 'rom-com', not as in 'roam' :-)
I'd say it's the same as RAW-mi-lee, it is for me, but I fear that might be another vowel altogether in US English.
