Hmm... I think the following might be a better IPA for the Dutch pronunciation of Roy:/'rɔi̯/This is because Dutch words that end in -i and -y are usually transcribed with -i̯ (only when the -i and -y are preceded by a vowel). Compare on the English Wiktionary:• hoi = /ɦɔi̯/
• loverboy = /lɔvərˌbɔi̯/
• baai = /ba:i̯/
• boei = /bui̯/
• doei = /dui̯/
• dooi = /do:i̯/
• hei = /ɦɛi̯/
• hooi = /ɦo:i̯/
• kooi = /ko:i̯/
• kraai = /kra:i̯/
• mooi = /mo:i̯/
• wei = /ʋɛi̯/In case it might be useful, here are some audio clips of the Dutch pronunciation of Roy:https://nl.forvo.com/search/Roy/nl/ (in Dutch)
