And so many BBC folk talk of Kir-cald-ee.
We have the same problem in Wales - is it Aber-ist-with or Aber-ust-with? (The River is always Ust-with)
If the locals say "Lerrik" then there could be a case for consistency with Berwick.
There will never be agreement on Beswick even though Keswick in Cumbria is always Kessick.
As for Des Moines, the French would have a coronary!
