Larry Madowo, who is flying high and away, keeps on making huge strides.

Today, he announced that BBC had to contact its Pronunciation Unit so as to make it possible for other reporters and anchors to get it correct his name.

Madowo noted that his surname ‘Madowo’ was putting butterflies in the stomach of his fellows, and had to be made to stand out clear and uniform .

After too many hilarious variations on air, the BBC’s Pronunciation Unit has added my surname to its database so colleagues can get it right:

mad-OH-waw (-a as in hat, -oh as in no, -w as in will, -aw as in law, second syllable is stressed)
