SEAN. Is it Shaun (with a long "o", an "au" sound) or is it Shahn (with an "ah" sound)?

I believe Roger Moore calls him SHAUN (with a hard "sh" sound to boot). Americans tend to go with SHAHN (plus a soft "sh" sound).

Hmmm. So no real consensus, eh?

It all depends on what region you're from. I guess it doesn't really matter what you call him. Just don't call him Greedy. Or he'll shmack you acrosh your fashe and call you a filthy bashtard.
