Grew up saying Mart In Ez but now say Mar Tee Nez unless it is a person I know pronounces it Mart In Ez (usually an old Cajun).
My wife grew up with some iminez's and they pronounced it Jim In Ez as opposed to He Min Ez.

Depends if that is a baw from Bourg or a baw from where everyone else has a last name ending in z.

I always ask someone how they pronounce their name then respect their version. Same as when I asked Brett Favre.

At some point, some people try to squeeze the ethnicity out of the surname.
The Cajun/French is being squeezed out of a lot of surnames these days

If it’s my brother in law, Mar Ti Nez.
If he’s on a roofing crew, Mar Tee Nez
