Re: How do you pronounce Leroy?
To me, Leroy is a stereotypical redneck name. There's a song Leroy the Redneck Reindeer by Joe Diffie, about a redneck reindeer that fills in for Rudolph one Christmas. That could be just me, though.

Leroy is a stereotypical redneck name to me, also. And the only Leroy I've ever known WAS a stereotypical redneck. My next door neighbor when I was living out in the country in Texas. Not a bad guy, but a redneck. I don't want to violate his privacy by divulging his last name, but I will say that his last name made Leroy sound even more redneck than it does coupled with most other last names. I don't even remember why I ever mentioned him to my father, but when I did, my father laughed his head off because Leroy with that particular last name just screamed REDNECK.
