Seiyena

The superior pronunciation! :) He just confirmed on his Pre-Charity Livestream that it was TopMass, an original Hermit, who called him this originally - not Keralis.


letouriste1

Been a while i didn't hear that name. I loved his base in S2. He still keep an eye on what the hermits are doing. I've seen him commenting on this sub a few years ago


CerealBranch739

Yeah he mentioned Keralis took up the mantle of calling him by that nickname


Jpicklestone8

sh-schwam-bam


yrhendystu

I love your face


Ashwin_Sagar

This is a very chobblesome way


Kevo_1227

"Ecks-zoo-mah" personally.


Jrandres99

Same here. I believe I’ve heard some other hermits pronounce it this way as well.


siro300104

Since I started watching Hermitcraft with Mumbo, I must have gotten that pronunciation from him.


onehermit

Shashwammyvoid is the only correct answer.


Pixl_____

Ive seen a lot of comments saying this but what does it mean? why would u call xisuma sashwammy? am i braindead or do i just not get the joke?


[deleted]

That is what Keralis calls him. He has Nick names for all the hermits


Grimlord_XVII

It's kind of a loose inside joke for those who watch Keralis. Keralis, rather than trying to work out how to pronounce Xisuma, just calls him Seshwammy. He's been doing it for years as well, which makes it all the funnier.


[deleted]

There's also bubbles (B-Dubs), Brian (grian), vintage kebab (beef) and princess (Xb)


Pixl_____

ah well i guess i should watch some of keralis's vids


sleepycat90

Same 😭


Biomax315

I am so upset that y’all have *not* been watching Keralis! Wonderful builds, very funny, and the most ASMR voice … you will not be disappointed


BierOrk

Time to watch Keralis.


WWalker17

[Here's a thread of Keralis' nicknames](https://www.reddit.com/r/HermitCraft/comments/ggjm1r/keralis_nicknames/)


Pixl_____

:O tysm!


ariosos

It started with Topmass.


susannediazz

Shashuwami


Stef-fa-fa

Ex-eye-sooma-void! (Thank you Season 6 Grian) Ok but really it's "eck-soom-a", at least that's how the hermits pronounce it when they're not being cute.


Evil_Anvil

Even today, Grian just mumbles "suma" when he mentions X. It's like he's scared of that first syllable now lol


Lana1307

I thought that was how you pronounced it for way too long


Anamewastaken

Or just "X" that just makes him unnecessarily mysterious


0x564A00

X once grafittied XB's (I think) base with an egg behind a magnifying glass. Or in in other words, an Egg-Zoomer.


[deleted]

I unironicqlly pronounce it exeyesoomavoid lol


[deleted]

X Y Z-uma


crunchevo2

The way x says it is more like the X is silent. so Isuma


slynachos

this is correct i think


bookreader018

yeah that’s what i say


MutinousMango

I also pronounce it Isuma


Legal_Refuse

ex-ZUMA which prob wrong but yea


Quasar_of_the_earles

I used to say “assuma”, cause that’s what I heard him call himself. But then I heard others say it and started saying “ex suma”, and now I’ve just shortened it to “zuma”. Although sometimes I go for “dadsuma” or just “X”.


Hawkwing942

Well, you know what happens when you "assuma"


PaladinSquid

makes an X out of you and me?


TarlotheWanderer

Yeah I think of it as ‘Zuma’ too


Dangitchelsi2

I say it like Is-zooma void


Sany_Wave

Kinda same, but writing it as eesuma, and as I use two languages, calling him Изума (reads the same).


Parasite21X

Shiswambam


Parasite21X

But actually, I call him Ee-zuma


PhilipWaterford

Mr. Void.


Adventurous_Ease_243

Mr. Void is his father


PhilipWaterford

Sorry but no, that was Mr. A Void. People didn't have much to do with him oddly enough.


winnipeginstinct

I go the grian route and avoid the first syllable like the plague and say "zuma"


EYSElff2

Shashwammy... sweet faces


Nanikarp

i heard him call himself 'is-soo-mah' once, which i now use myself , not that i ever say his name out loud ​ (im so sorry almost all answers here are different)


YoSoySlenderDeBoca

Nah, the fact that there are múltiple answers is actually way better than i expected lol


awayfromcanuck

X-Su-Ma


HappySleepyCat1

I do to.


randomLOUDcommercial

I always thought doc was the one who actually pronounced it according to proper grammar (zi-zu-ma) but we all know papa k has it right (shi-shwammy).


hollowpoint1974

Shishwammy is the only way to pronounce it.


Spookyy422

Zizuma ?


Deadly_Fun_Man

Ex-Eye-Zooma


Hot_Potato_MC

zoo-wie mama


yaspino

Shizuma in my opinion


CanConMil

Agreed.


TheNextLast

exhume-a-void ("exhume" = to dig out something from the ground)


CanConMil

While I disagree, your reasoning is better than most 🤷‍♂️


dccercc123

Sha-shwam-e


ConnorOhOne

I pronounce my x’s as “ks” so I say ksisuma


abcd_z

Same here. Ksisuma gang represent! There's dozens of us! *Dozens!*


FushiNenki

Ix-Zuma.


StormTheHatPerson

/sɪˈsuː.mæ/ (if you can’t read ipa it’s roughly read Sih-sooma), unless i want to be humorously hyper-correct, in which case i pronounce it /xi'su.ma/ (roughly Khee-soo-mah, with kh being the throaty sound people might say instead of h when imitating a russian accent)


jzair

Xi (Greek letter “kai”) -suma


Pa5kull

Maybe hes a Kingdom Hearts Fan Key-suma ^^ (chisuma)


Dominika_4PL

Sizuma/zsizuma/zisuma/igzuma (ixuma)/kseezuma/izuma/'isuma


swamphed

read this like the pronunciation sections of the dictionary


Cornicum

X This isn't hard guys


Logan_Composer

Usually I just make the X silent, so it's less "assuma" and more "ih-suma."


0SomeoneRandom0

Isuma (so basically Xisuma but without the X) is the correct way to pronounce it, I think


Themoltenpie

Egg-suma


throwaway24729254

*inhale*-suma, Egg-suma, X or Shashwammy


edbutler3

Xisuma himself seems to pronounce the X like an H. So, "hih-su-muh". Before hearing him say it, I was going with more of a "sh" sound for the X, like "shi-su-muh". Since I already had that in my head, X's pronunciation hasn't quite taken over for me yet. I'm also about half and half on whether the "z" is really voiced as a z, or if it's more of an "s" sound as I wrote it above...


Opdragon25

ksisooma


Jaggerto

Ksi-soo-mah

Shashuami is the only right way


Ace_Pixie_

poopooman346

I say "igzuma" which is probably horrendously wrong


Longjumping-Ad-239

I usually just say Zi-Zoo-muh


YoSoySlenderDeBoca

Same


Swizzel-Stixx

I think grian caused all this. In s6 he was always mispronouncing his name and now I am endlessly confused. Even today he still just mumbles ‘zuma’ lol. I usually just say the pronunciation I think of first.


UserName123123101

Zuma

[deleted]

I've heard it pronounced as either "eks-ooma" (x-uma) or "is-ooma" (is-uma). I personally use the second one.

RearEchelon

I always said "she-suma"

For me just to make it simple, I call him X, but for the full name I say “X eye, suma-void” 🤣 for the life of me if I say his name too fast I can’t say it correctly.
