Does Dominic Frontiere pronounce his last name FRUN-TEER (as in Space The Final.....) or does the E at the end make it something like FRON-TEE-AIR?
Frun-tee-ay

If I'm not mistaken, the original French pronunciation would be FRON-TEE-AY, but since he was born in America, it's unlilkely he went by that. I'm guessing it's pronouced FRON-TEER.
*cough* see above

Then there's the case with Franz Waxman. It's pronounced "WAX-Man" but the German pronounciation is "VOX-Mann".
No, it would be 'Vaxmann'. I did German at school, but I've forgotten most of it.

Assuming he pronounces it as in all other French nomenclature, it's Domeeneek Frontyerrrr. But roll both the 'r's.

I always assumed it was Hugo FREED-hofer but I know a film music fan who insists on pronouncing it FRIED-hofer (like"fried" chicken). In German isn't it the second of two vowels that determines the pronunciation?
No, you're right. For the fried chicken variety, it'd need to be Freidhofer, with the vowels reversed. The 'o' needs pronounced as in 'hope'. It's FREEDhowfer. In fact, the 'd' is almost a 't', sort of halfway there.

Non, ce n'est pas vrais. It's Frawnt-YERRRRRRR. Just two syllables but ROLL THAT 'R' OUT LONG.
'Fronteeay would be 'Frontier' or 'Frontie' with a grave above the last 'e'.

I hope we get a Polish native speaker in here, because I think it's
VOY-CHECK
It is in a way, but as somebody said above, the 'oy' is so fast it's like Vo-Check. Precisely, it's Vwoy-check, but at speed it comes out Vo-check.
