Since the name has been in use for over 500 years on both sides of the Irish Sea I thought it would be interesting to understand how the pronunciation varies from region to region. The pronunciations given so far are pretty consistent. The biggest change to the English pronunciation of McElmurry seems to be pronouncing the m as in English rather than a v sound.
