[Opinions] Re: Croix?

Yes, people will probably mispronounce it in an English-language setting.
I don't care for it besides. It's unattractive and needlessly complicated. Also I love La Croix water, with the fittingly midwestern US mispronunciation of "croy."
Forvo is one of my favorite websites ever. I love listening to native speakers pronounce things that sound or look complicated to me. The French language always leaves me stumped.

"Do you know how a man makes his way here? By brilliance of genius or the cunning use of corruption.
You must cut a path through this mess of men like a cannon-ball, or creep among them like a pestilence."
Balzac
