Yes, since you can't make up a name's pronounciation. I'm always tempted to pronounce Celtic names like they're written, such as "N-ee-am" for Niamh and "Sao-eers" for Saoirse, that doesn't mean that it's right to pronounce them this way (and that's why I'm in favour of Anglicization, but that's OT).
