Thread Name: MacPherson [how to pronounce?]
Subject: MacPherson
Friends of mine are going to do a radio show soon, and one of the songs they will be playing has the name 'MacPherson' in it.

Where I grew up (the Chicago-Milwaukee megalopolis) this name is pronounced Mac FIERCE son.

Here in the Kansas City region, it is pronounced Mac FUR son.

So I am taking a poll. How do you say it, and where are you from?
