Amos Pronunciation

I know the actual pronunciation is Ay-muss but could it be pronounced as Ay-mose? It seems more natural. Could it work?

I dunno…I think the ay-muss pronunciation is fairly standard. I prefer it, anyway.

I think the pronunciation of [name_m]Amos[/name_m] is too well-recognized for a change to be effective.

Yes you can pronounce either way, there are many places where it’s pronounced a- [name_m]Mose[/name_m]. It’s up to you.

I always thought of it as Ay-muss but I know a family that has it as a family name and they pronounce it Ay-mose so I’m sure you could use it both ways.
