I hope you get beat up at your kid's elementary school

Don't make up your own pronunciation rules. It's a bad idea because of situations like this one in which you make yourself, your son, and anyone with your chromosomes look stupid.

Eddie (my coworker): "you have one child... Mykule (pronounces it Ma-coo-lee)"

Parent (idot): "Michael"

Eddie: "what?"

Idiot Parent: "My child's name is Michael."

Eddie: "...oh..."
