In American English both pronunciations are used and because the name is being used in that context, one pronunciation is no more correct than the other. Sure, the LEW-is pronunciation is bastardized to fit English, but it is just as traditional as LEW-ee in the states. Stick with the French pronunciation if that is what strikes you. People will learn it.
