Pronunciation vs. Deal breaker

Should I let potential pronunciation issues be a deal breaker?? I have an Irish name and a Scottish name in mind and I love them both!! But I keep second guessing either one because I live in the US where the pronunciation may not come as second nature for some American English speakers. I don’t want my son to hate his name, but I also don’t know if I can find any names that me and my husband like as much....what should we do?? Go for it anyway? Or keep searching for another name?

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
