Actually the pronounciation is V, the I´s pronounced like the e in "we", then the double l and the last "e" is pronounced like the "e" in the word example. That´s if you want to be true to the original way of pronouncing Ville.
Pronounced with a short "EE" (or "I" like in "bin"), double L and with E sound like in "bed" in the end).

A famous bearer of this name is Ville Valo, vocalist of the famous Finnish band HIM. Though many Americans pronounce it "Vill", as though it rhymes with Bill, the actual pronunciation is "VEE-lay".
