OK, so what are the rules in the USA for "Louis"? Examples Joe Louis, (who I know as "Lewis", but most people in UK want to say "Loo-ey") Louis Armstrong (hello Dolly, this is Lewis, Dolly), St Louis, Missouri. "It's the ghost, of the Saint Lewis Blues" according to Leon Redbone, but Billie Holliday sings "Saint Loo-ey Woman") and then there is Louisville, Kentucky. Can somebody please 'splain. cheers, Terry
