Dr Seuss
“You’re wrong as the deuce
And you shouldn’t rejoice
If you’re calling him Seuss.
He pronounces it
Soice.” (or Zoice)
Alexander Liang, a collaborator with
Theodor Seuss Giesel. Geisel switched
to the anglicised pronunciation because it "evoked a figure advantageous
for an author of children’s books to
be associated with Mother Goose, and
because most people used this pronunciation.
