whomever

Whatever person chosen

Whomever is the objective form of whoever.

It is rare today except in formal writing, since many speakers now accept whoever as acceptable after nouns and even after prepositions.

A grammatically correct example is Be kind to whomever you meet, but most speakers today would find whoever acceptable in this sentence.
