The bow in Bowie is pronounced the same way as in BOW and arrow and the ie is the same as the letter E. Put that together and you'll be pronouncing it properly!

"bo-wee"
The aspiring rock star needed to use a different stage name to avoid confusion with Davy Jones of The Monkees, so he chose the last name Bowie after the Alamo hero Jim Bowie and his famous Bowie Knife. David pronounces "Bowie" to rhyme with "Joey".
