Default Re: Pronunciations

That "Willis" pronunciation seem to come from "people in the know" of how Mr Willys pronounced his name. But IMHO, if you want the name to be pronounced "Willis", spell it "Willis". Willys is the spelling of a word that is pronounced "Willees".

Koopay would only be correct if there was an acute accent over the final e in Coupe. There ain't, so it's Koop.

Nuf said.
