I have only ever heard it pronounced Bron-tee. It is the name of a well known beach in Sydney (the next one along from Bondi) and it is also the name of a formerly anorexic girl who is often in the news here.
I also of course think of the Bronte sisters, whose name is pronounced Bron-tee and I can only see it on a girl. But I would never use it because for me there are just too many associations.
