Dani brumajem is a local name, but not used so much these days since outsiders picked up on it.
Ha! Goes to show. Most people in the UK don't know how to pronounce names on the other side ofthe hill :p

It's like Sowerby, near me. I assumed, and if you look at a pronunciation guide it will tell you that it is pronounced SOW-er-bi

But call it that and you're instantly marked as a tourist :p Because locals all pronounce it SAW-bi
