My sense/guess is that
PELAGOS s vocalized something like " Puhr Lah Gosz ".

At least that's how I heard the Tudor people say it.

I pronounce it with the emphasis on the last syllable and with a long "O."

According to this, I'm not far off.

Tyooder Pel-AH-goss.

I'm from England, though, and a lot of these phonetic pronunciations will be reflecting regional or national accents. Say it how you like, or get a Black Bay
