Hello priscprsc,
To change the say Siri pronounces something, you can simply say "You pronounced that name wrong" then check on the pronunciation options it presents to see if any sound the way you want.
You can also set up a pronunciation directly in a contact. In the Phone app go to the Contacts tab, select the contact you want to work with then select Edit at the top right. Under the Notes section select Add Field, then choose "Pronunciation first name" or "Pronunciation last name" (whichever one you want to set a pronunciation for) then spell out the name phonetically (how you want it to sound) then select Done at the top right when you're finished.
Cheers!
