We have a major thoroughfare here called San Felipe. A large number of the local population calls it San Phillip-ee. Grates on my nerves every single time I hear it that way. I've taken to pretending that I don't know what they're talking about until they pronounce it correctly.
I have issues with Houston street in New York too.
