[Opinions] Re: Colm

I guess I always assumed it was pronounced like Cole + m. :b I prefer the Coll-um prn, lol. There are a couple of actors named Colm (Colm Feore & Colm Meaney) but that's the only times I've ever seen the name. I think I prefer Callum, but Colm is quite nice.

Ditto to everything, except

I have no idea who Colm Feore is. :)

He's a lovely Canadian actor...showed up in Caveman's Valentine with Samuel L. Jackson, Chronicles of Riddick with Vin Diesel, Stephen King's Storm of the Century, but he's really best onstage.

Thanks, Kae.

This is him:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0272173/
(And in the 'bio' part of his profile, it even says his fn is pronounced like "column". :b)

The most (fairly) recent things I've seen him in were "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" and "Chicago".
