I've just been imagining it pronounced phonetically in English (a lot of English W names are different than German versions, so whatever imv), but it's related to Witte, so the traditional Germanic way is probably with a V sound...

(+rik, which I assume would be same as in Frederik / Fredrik in various languages)...Vidrik may be a version of it.
