I wonder if they're related to the actual Illinoisans who insist on pronouncing the "s" at and end of the state's name and have you heard how Goethe, Paulina and Devon are pronounced in Chicago?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Also, San Francisco is not pronounced "Frisco."
When people do pronounce it that way, I think it's OK to hit them.

There is more than one way to pronounce Devon?

Frisco is a suburb of Dallas. SAN FRANCISCO is my second favorite city ever.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Frisco is a suburb of Dallas.
Also, a town near Cape Hatteras.

Isn't Devon pronounced duh-VAHN in Chicago?
Spent yesterday in bed. Still feel like crap. Now addicted to Korean TV show about a coffee shop.

Isn't Devon pronounced duh-VAHN in Chicago?
Yep.
When I use the word, I have to stop and think whether I'm talking about the street or my (ex)cat. (Senor was a Devon Rex.)

What shrift said.
Paulina - long "i" on the second syllable.
Goethe - pronounce Go-thee (more or less)
