But how do you pronounce Simon, Gordi? Do you pronounce it Simmon? Or Symon?
So it's just like Simon, but with the N. Symo...

Yeah yeah I agree, Simon, Sigh, mon.
So either way it's Sigh, Mo.

It's exactly like Simon (sigh-mon), but instead of the 'mon' it's just 'mo'
Lets say no more on this matter
