I hear some people saying "Montague," like the Romeo and Juliet family.

Mon-teh-gut is probably the most common pronunciation by the Louisiana populace.

I've never heard of it but it would be Mont-e-gut for me. This is the United States, not some French country. I don't pronounce St. Louis like St. Louie.

Not arguing with you, but I forgot to add the YouTube link earlier. I thought I'd throw this in for consideration.
