In Kentucky, it is pronounced Lou-uh-vul. If you pronounce it differently it's an immediate indicator you're not from here. We also have Versailles, KY which is Ver-sales, and Athens, KY which is Ay-thuns.
I'm aware Louisville, MS is pronounced Lewisville. They can have that for all we care.

This is the closest of the options you posted. But I believe it's closer to
Lew-uh-vul

Kentuckians also pronounce Versailles as Ver-Sails instead of Ver-sigh
That's because it is Versailles not Versigh
