There is (or was?) a street in New Orleans called Clio (the Muse of  
History) and most of the young kids pronounce it:

C L Ten

There's a river that runs through beautiful downtown Joliet called the Des
Plaines ("dess-plains").  And don't forget that street in Chicago called
Devon ("de-VON") Ave.

There are all kinds of weird pronunciations in the Midwest.  One of my
favorites is a town in southern Illinois called Vienna ("vye-enna").  And of
course there is Cairo ("KAY-ro").  One of my favorites is in Indiana,
though.  The town whose high school basketball team the movie "Hoosiers" was
based on is Milan ("MY-lin").
