Anyone have an idea how to pronounce this? Is it like Lassie? Or Lass? Or something else that I am missing?

One of my best friends is a Lasse, and I love love love the name. Unless they veered, it’s pronounced Loss-Uh.

Common name for boys in Finland. Google agrees with me, so maybe they have some Scandinavian roots?
