How is the last name pronounced?


I was just wondering if someone can please write out how to pronounce Keough?

Thank you.

Never mind. I found out. For anyone wondering, it's Key-oh.

If I'm wrong, let me know, but I'm pretty sure that's right.

Well that doesn't rhyme with Day-O.

KEE-yo. Or KEY-O (whichever helps you). It's a fairly common Irish name. Sometimes spelled without the "u" as Keogh but pronounced the same. At Custer's Last Stand, a Captain Myles Keogh was killed and his horse "Comanche" was the only survivor of the battle from the cavalry. The Keough or Keogh name goes way back in history.
