Hmm. The weird thing is that at school, we pronounced it Ee-oh-LAH-us. Yet another variation. Zoe, how about it? How would you say it?
That was one of the things I liked in your singer-of-Apollo fic - that Iolaus hardly recognizes his name because the singer uses a 'weird' pronunciation of it. And then he goes 'well, it fits better into the metre that way', heh.
And yes, don't get me started on 'Iolus' fics. (Bangs head against wall).
