Savoy = Se /voi
Think of most words ending in oy as making the oi sound as in toy. I put the phonetic spelling, because the a makes the schwa sound indicated by the upside down e in the dictionary.

It is pronounced like this:: [suh-voi]
Suh is like the first part of the word 'supper'.
And voi is pronounced the same as it would be in the word 'void'.

It rhymes with "Malloy", and almost rhymes with "annoy".
Suh - VOYE is (sə-voi'), and in french, it's spelled Savoie
Someone from Savoy is a Savoyard, pronounced (sə-voi'ärd') or (säv'oi-yärd') There is also Savoy cabbage, but I don't know how it got its name.
Illinois, Massachusetts, and Texas all have towns named Savoy.

Savoy rhymes with ahoy.
The accent is on the second syllable.
