 Wrong/Changing Pronunciation - Bromptonaut
A piece of the radio over the weekend had me asking Mrs B when Louis Armstrong's name stopped being pronounced Lewie and became Lewis.

Canada has a new PM today, Justin Trudeau son of Pierre Trudeau. Surname pronounced true - doh as long as I can remember. Chap on R5 this morning kept using true-doo.

IIRC Pierre's wife had a reputation of her own....
