How do you pronounce the surname Statham.

Transporter 3 is a film starred by Jason Statham.

I think it is pronounced either STAY-thum or STAY-dhum.

How is it really pronounced?

Thank you for your reply.

STAY-thumb is a nice easy way to remember it, please don't make the common error of adding the 'r' to make it STRAY-thumb, or pronounce it STAT-ham - that really annoys, but to be fair that is what it looks like.

I think the weirdest I've ever been called was 'SCRATCH-um'!

For those who are into such things, Statham is a village midway between Chester, Manchester and Liverpool
