I don't know if this has been brought up before, but...

How EXACTLY are we supposed to pronounce "Lelouch?"

I mean, I've tried to figure it out, but all sound weird to me. I just don't quite get how Ruruushu is supposed to translate to Lelouch. ( "Lay-loach?" "Lee-lock?" "Lee-looch?")

I know the dub is coming out soon, but I wanna know if, as of yet, there is an official pronunciation for it. Cuz I'm stumped.

I'd put my money on LEH-loosh, with the "Lulu" coming from the good ol' Romanization issues for R and L sounds. The Japanese characters become "Rurushi" with a silent vowel on the end, I think.
