LA steals NYC acronym


Um, so I was just on a message board, and a post-er’s profile showed his location as “WeHo.” I can only assume this means West Hollywood, stealing the acronym idea from NYC (and London’s) SoHo.

Yeah... so - how does one pronounce that?

‘WEE-hoe’ - This is one step away from Weeble Wobble. Maybe it’s a baby Weeble.

‘WAY-hoe’ - Sounds like another swear word in Spanish (which might be needed in LA. I am a Southern California girl. I learned Spanish swear words before English ones.)

‘WUH-hoe’ - That just sounds like someone garbling, “What, hoe?” Sounds snarky, if you ask me.

What do you think?
