So many, but the funniest has been "meme" (English is not my first language). My online friends who are English speakers were eternally amused by it, sadly my audhd brain has forgotten how I pronounced it.
My first encounter with it was from the Selfish Gene, where Dawkins describes it as a "mind version of a gene", so he thought meme sounded fine. Hearing Maymay was bonkers to me.
I had a similar thing where I learned the pronunciation of meme and then proceeded to say the name of Pepe the Frog in the same way, like "peep". I still do this, but I've been informed it's wrong.

Maybe "mehmeh" or "meemee"?
I used to go meh meh
Me me
Something like this probably.:D
