I have also heard Toe-Oh-Toe-Oh
Not to be a grammar nazi or whatever, but, what syllable(s) is/are stressed?
That makes all the difference in the world when seeing it in print, then pronouncing it.
Thanks a lot.
Start with the cadence you would use to say:
"DeSoto"
Okay, now add a stressed long O sound to the end, i.e.
DeSoto-Oh
Now replace the DeS with the number 2.
2-oto-Oh
Does that make sense?
Edit: it might be "toe" instead of "2," but I'm pretty sure I stressed the right syllables.
