At first i thought it was Bomb-ombs so i used to pronounse it like that. i find it harder to pronounce it the other ways.

I've always gone with the Oh cheese! They're exploding!! pronunciation..

But in cases where I'm not playing the games, it's either BAWB-ahmb, or baw-BAHMB (sort of like Sapph's).

The B is silent. Maybe that helps you out a bit...BOB-OM*

Am I the only one who expected Bob-ombs to be soccer-ball sized?  It was disappointing when Bowser pulled out a dinky, little, tennis Bob-omb.

... Not that that was the biggest disappointment of the movie, but hey.

Hey, the small size, along with the fact that it still packed big punch, is what made the Bob-omb of the movie so awesome.  That movie wasn't all that good, but it does have some redeeming factors.

I go with bomb-omb

Why do so many people pronounce it wrong? It's not spelled "bomb-omb". It never was. It's kind of like saying "bomb" but stuttering the first two letters a little.

... in addition to mimicking the sound it makes when it explodes.

*bob-OMB!*

Also, I'm not saying the Bob-omb in the movie wasn't awesome.  I'm saying its size was unexpected, and that made it disappointing.  The smallest they get in the game series is about the size of Mario's head--and Mario's got a pretty big head.

It's pronounced "BOB-OMS". Look at my last post. It will say the same thing.

I say Bob-Omg, just how it's spelled... but saying it at normal speeds it sounds like bob-omb with the B from the Bob subtly carried over to Omb, kinda like "Bobomb." Grodus has trouble saying it, heh: "Buh huh huh.."
Formerly quite reasonable.
