Re: Renwick

That's actually the main person I was thinking of (Warrick Brown) when I wrote my post! Shame what happened to that character, he was great, but from what I understand the actor had some issues.
There are a handful of cases where we use the British pronunciation, the main one I can think of being Greenwich Village in NYC (GREN-ich). Otherwise, we tend to either say the W or drop it entirely.
