Question

How to pronunciation of 'Rheaume', French last name?

Answer 1

Like "Rome" but with the French "r"

I went to school with someone named "Rheaume" as well, most people with foreign names who've been in the US long enough loose the actual pronunciation... Like "Dubois" saying "doo-boys" instead of "Du-bwah." Tais-toi!

Answer 2

It does sound like Rome! Why the thumbs down???

Answer 3

It doesn't sound like Rome at all, sorry guys.

It should be spelled ''Rhéaume'', with the accute accent on the [e] and pronounced like: Ray-om.

It is a very popular French Canadian last name, hence why you'll find it in Franco American families as well.

Answer 4

It would sound like "Rome"

Answer 5
