Didn't see these here yet, maybe I missed it, but what about..

Guy Herbert (Gee Ay-bare)

Here's the weird thing about Guy: Dude's from upstate NY. Troy, to be exact. Pronounced his name "GAI HEE-bert" until hockey people started assuming he was French-Canadian. He figured it was too much trouble to correct everyone, so he just went along with it.

I remember when he played for the Rangers, and Marty said (with the over-pronounciation) something to the effect of "how come I'm Mart-in Broderrr, and he's Gee Ay-bare?"
