I pronounce it THEE-ron. No idea if that is correct though.
I looked on another site and it said the pronunciation was THAIR-en.

I'd say THER-in (rhymes with Aaron, Darren, baron, heron, etc.).

Where do you live?The actor Charlize Theron grew up using the South African pronunciation, which is approximately Trrawn. But when she moved to the USA she changed it to make life easier for everyone: THER-on, with the -er in ther being the same as the -er in Jerry.
