Ok I need your opinion to help a friend!

I was talking to my girlfriend today who is expecting a little boy in May. Her husband and her are having a debate on the spelling of a name. She wants to name him Seamus but her husband is afraid that people will mispronounce it so he wants to spell it Shamus. Well to her she sees SHAMUs. What do you personally thing about the spellings? Would you know how to pronounce Seamus?

As much as I love Sea World and Shamu.. Shamus is horrible. I think Shaymus would be better if you were going phonetically, but it's still terrible. Like others have said, I think Seamus has become more widespread and people won't have trouble with it like they're thinking. :)
