Most Americans say lie-nuks, not lee-nooks, and the Europeans I can

And aside from the fact that I'm not doing this to be talked about,
Oscar Wilde once said: the only thing worse than being talked about is
not being talked about.  So as long as people have something to talk
about (the confusing name) it's fine with me. ;)
