If Ferry says, "porsh-uh", it's Porsh-uh" :)

It's his name, how can you argue with that? This is how he pronounces it:

Prof. Dr. Ferry Porsche

I'm still confused. *L* Should we pronounce the name "Portia" as "Port-tee-Uh", too? My problem with pronouciation is derived from having a mother who lived on "House-ton St." in NYC and prefers La Gwadia airport and from spending some time in NOLA where I learned to pronounce street names. My favorite was "Milan" as "MY-lan". Talk about your Franch influence.
