Hi there!
I need your help this time with the sentence: Who was him? Is it correct? or should I say "he". I know that it is said but I don't know if it's correct.
Thanks a lot!

However, I've heard: "Who was him?" Why is it not correct?
Bye for now

I am not sure if this logic works for you.
Question: Who is your boss?
Answer: John is my boss.
Reciprocally, who is he? he is my boss.
Who was "him"?
It asks you to tell the name of the person earlier referred to with the pronoun "him".
This kind of question is extremely unusual, and it goes like this:
-- Susan saw him yesterday and gave him the message.
-- Who was "him"? (Who were you referring to when you used the word "him"?)
-- Oh, I thought you knew who I was talking about. It was Robert.
Unless this very unusual situation comes up, you cannot use "Who was "him"?"
