 Benoit
I see this name a lot and never know how to pronounce it.
Yeah, I could easily research it on the Internet. But that's not why I created the thread.

 Re: Benoit
I have always said Ben-wah. Stretching the first half slightly to differentiate it from the Chinese sex toy.

 Re: Benoit
I used to say, Be-nwah...but David is right according to google.
Chinese sex toy though, while living in China, I have no idea what's that about.

 Re: Benoit
Can say the wrestling murderer went by Ben-Wa, not sure about others. Think oit as in a French suffix
