    Same with Robert ‘Muller’. His name’s spelled Mueller, so by German language rules it would seem it should be pronounced ‘Müller’ (‘ue’ in English being a substitute for the umlauted ‘u’).

    This one gets a pass from me because the German vowel “ü” doesn’t exist in English. Are you going to complain to ze Germans that they can’t natively pronounce the th, too?
