British names can be pronounced differently based on location, status and/or preference. For example, one of my ancestral names is St John (pronounced Saint John) but some Brits pronounce it Sinjin. Then there's McKay (MacKay or Mackeye), Strachan (Strack-an or Strawn and Mainwaring (as it's spelt or Mannering).
I have been quite happy with Gil's attempts to pronounce names. He is a lot better than those who came before but you'd think he would have practised Petracca.
