Bee-ah-oo is the closest english pronouciation I've got of my native language pronunciation of him. Pretty much the french one, I suppose?
 
Bow, I used to say Beau as in beautiful but my mom being from Louisiana told me how they pronounce it.
 
Beau is a french word, pronounced like bow, so that's how I've always said it. I took a semester of French in high school, so I knew how to pronounce it, but if I hadn't, I'd probably pronounce it differently.
 
I pronounce it "bow" but Beau answers to the megaphone when you say "byew (as in "beau"tiful).
 
I pronounce it Bo/Bow/Boh/etc.

I didn't even know that some people pronounce it as "byew." I figured that the French pronunciation was the proper one?
 
I saw Bow~ Though I've always wondered how people say Pietro. I say Pee-trow. But I know others say Pee-et-trow
