whomever

Translation

誰をでも / 誰にでも / 誰であっても

Meaning

Whomever is a formal pronoun meaning any person whom, used when the word is the object of a verb or preposition. In everyday English, whoever often replaces it. Do not use whomever just because the sentence sounds formal; check its grammar role.
