Thankfully a 2008 Telegraph article shared that you should be saying “yoo-juh-nee,” with an emphasis on the “yoo.”

The royal doesn’t mind that we’ve been getting it wrong.

“Whenever we used to meet foreign people who were struggling with it, my mum and I would help them by saying, ‘It’s like Use Your Knees.’ But whatever. I am now used to every pronunciation,” she said at the time.
