help me with pronunciation of this name?
hello all, I have to give a presentation in front of my class and I don't want to mess up the name of the Saint I am presenting on. I haven't been able to get a pronunciation of it anywhere, so I'm trying you guys... the name is Saint Wandregisel, but he is sometimes called Saint Wandrille, so I would like both pronunciations if you can! I know I can count on one of the fabulous posters on this wonderful site... ;) thanks in advance...

thank you so much. I was kind of confused because depending on the source material, the name was either spelled with a W or a V, so I wasn't sure about pronunciation in that regard. and the other variation (Wandrille/Vandrille)I have no clue how to pronounce! so uhm, yeaa, I still need a bit of help from you all out there =)
I have a gift with pronunciation actually. Feel free to ask me anything. I'm well adjusted to odd sounding names. For this one, I'd like to see where it's from to be able to figure it out.
