I haven't heard much variation in the pronunciation of Larry, but the
two common mistakes are to misread Colen as Cohen, or to pronounce it
the way everyone but Colin Powell pronounces Colin. It's pronounced
like Cohen, but with an "L" rather than an "H": Koe-len.

Russian I am borIs while everywhere else it turns out to be bOris...
