yeah, I remember asking him to confirm his name when he used to ring in and he pronounced it as you did, I thought he was just too embarrassed/ London posh to pronounce it as spelled.

There were a couple of Hoares at my secondary school which was a convent run by nuns. We used to snigger when Sr. Veronica had to call out their names during assembly.

There was also a Catherine Hiney and a Hilary Schmoochen, or Smoochie as we used to call her.

There was the famous cricket commentary gaff, "the bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey...". The wrong names in the wrong place at the wrong time.
