I live in the UK too and have never heard anyone refer to Lego as Legos. The latter sounds extremely odd (in the same way that 'sheeps' does).
I wish North Americans would use the correct pronunciation.
- fnordfnordfnord 11y agoUS person here. I grew up calling them Legos. I don't know why. I even spent a Summer in Sweden (and visited Denmark several times) when I was a child; yet I still wound up calling them Legos. I don't refer to sheep (plural) as sheeps, though. I'm just happy that my neighbors aren't including an errant apostrophe ie: Lego's
