#1 is correct.
#2 is the butchering that's become widely accepted.

Calliope isn't the only Muse street we butcher:
Melpomene and Terpsichore are also butchered pretty badly, too.

This one is actually correct.
What baffles me is: New "Orlins" but "Or-leans" Avenue.

Hell I've heard different pronunciations of New Orleans' city name by native New Orleanians.
"New Aw luhns"
"New Aw lee uhns"
"New Aw luhns"
"New Aw lee uhns"
