Thanks! It wouldn't explain the variants though.

It actually does explain the variations, as not every country that speaks Spanish has the same accents and hence not the same pronunciation. I agree it is probably a transcription of a Filipino pronunciation. The Philippines were of course colonized by the Spanish for many years.
