But I'd pronunce the good old fashioned American way--so that it sounded exactly like the word "clawed"--since that's how my...great-great-uncle, I think? Well, that's how he would've pronunced his name had I known him.
I'm a student of the French language, though, and I wouldn't describe the French pronunciation as sounding like "cloud" (assuming I'm understanding your pronunciation, which is written a bit ambiguously) though. More like something in between "clohd" (oh as in "soap") and "cluhd."

O come, all ye Grateful
Deadheads to the concert.
O come, Grateful Deadheads,
And camp in the street.
