Talk:SoHo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Who first called it SoHo??? Wshun
The mysterious faceless unnamed beggar fom Sullivan st. :)
I've convinced myself that SoHo is almost certainly a bacronym for a place named after London's Soho. Any etymologists want to pick up on this and investigate?
[edit] Houston?
Is there a reason to its unusual pronunciation? Houston is the name of a major city as well, and it is pronounced like Hyoo-stin there. I lived there for years, then moved to New York only to hear this completely different pronunciation of what appears to be the same name.
