This was my great grandfather's name. It was pronounced ah-loo-ee. The "s" was silent. My family is German and French and I was born in Germany as well. I used this name for my son as a middle name/family name.

I always believed it to be pronounced to rhyme with "voice".
German pronunciation: AW-lo-ees. [noted -ed] Traditional German name, especially in Bavaria (south-east). Considered very old fashioned, rarely given to newborns today.
