It depends on what language it's used in. English tends to use the eye, but Afrikaans always has the ee, but a little shorter.
I should think you could still use it, and just impose your will on the public! I once met a couple from England who'd just had their first baby and named her Fiona ... but they pronounced that with an eye, and were really insistent. To my mind it wrecked a good name, but they obviously thought the rest of the regiment was out of step.
