Question about Spohn???

This isn't technical, but how do you pronounce "Spohn"? I have heard it pronounced "Spawn" and "Spoon", which is it? This has just been bothering me b/c I always here it both ways and I want to know what is correct. Thanks

You're the winner

Think of it as Spone (rhyming with Bone).

I hear many variations, not a big deal to me.

There was a post about this exact same thing about a year ago I believe. I've always said Spohn rhyming with bone too.

The search button really does work!
