I don't think you guys get it.
How is it possible to switch the vr to rv when you pronounce it. How is it possible to switch letters during pronunciation of a word?
Jeanne and Jean doesn't switch the words around and neither does the pronunciation of Marseilles.

Same way Marseilles, IL is pronounced Mar-Sails
Remember Brett Favre is from Kiln, MS or The Kill if you live on the coast.

The same way my name Jeanne, is usually pronounced Jean; but, my mother wanted it pronounced Je-nee.
The last name of Chouteau, could be pronounced Cha-taw, Shew-taw, or Show-taw, depending upon the part of the country one lives in, or one's geneological ancestry.

that's easy for people to say, and all people assume the football announcers have checked with him to pronounce it like that.
how about "byfuglien" coming out as "bufflin"?
if the owner is ok with it, it flies.
but your correct, it should be favv-ray or faver or farr.

I think it's a French name. In the French language, many things are possible.
