OP Well, I _thought_ that the "Fats Waller: 1938" soundbite settled the issue. I heard Floogie-with-a-hard-G-as-in-goose. Apparently that's not unchallengeable. Any other opinions either way?
(To minimize further ambiguity: the hard G sound is meant to be G-as-in-goose, the soft G sound J-as-in-Jeep. )
Btw, so far the results of this highly unscientific inquiry are roughly fifteen floo-J-ies, seven floo-G-ies, and two floo-Z-ies...
[aside: How do I suppress the signature line from these posts? It's a bit redundant, since it appears alongside the message anyway]
