i pronounce it "cue" but people are free to do as they wish
― Mr. Que
I always assumed this was the case, since "Mr. Que" is based on the fact that his wife posts as "quincie."

Ive always said "kew" as well. And saying Louis' name properly. And HOOS is short for HOOSTEEN so that one should be obvious!
Does anyone mispron my name as "tracy"? I hope not.
― Dearth Disco (Trayce), Monday, 28 September 2009 03:20 (fourteen years ago) link
I have always thought of it as Mr. Cue and Hoos rhymes with juice. Louis will never be louie to me - sorry.
