GALLARDO (from the famed stables of lamborghini)

Oh common! Why is it appalling to mispronounce any name when you've never heard the right thing
when u hear a word for the first time, as an educated person, is it not your duty to look up the right way to pronounce it?
or do you just make up watever u want and go with tat?
cmon sam.. act educated.. NOT literate.
:P
