I've vaguely heard of Hugh Jackman, but not of his wife; it seems they are divorcing. OK. But, her name is unexpected. Deborra-Lee. I would expect Deborra to sound like deBORRa, but I've only ever heard DEBorah and DEBra. Does Deborra happen in Australia, or is it a one-off? And since it's a hyphenated name, is the -Lee segment regularly used, or is she just Deborra?

In Afrikaans, Debora is pronounced deBOOer-a, but I wouldn't expihatt in Australia.
