Oh wow, they have an audio sample and everything! Looks like it's "for jeo" (pronounced like "Mateo")

I feel like if you need an audio sample to get people to pronounce your name correctly, you should just name it something else....

Aka, pretend it's Spanish, since it's a word from pretend Spanish (specifically Esperanto, not Portuguese)

Wasn't Esperanto made by a Polish dude?

J has an H sound in Spanish, not a Y sound.
