Could you alter the pronunciation and use "Eye-oh-lo", or would that make me sound stupid?

This is my brothers name. It is relatively common in wales. I think its great if you're welsh.

Iolo, although it is pronounce yo-luh, is way to close to the overused "yolo" stupid kids are saying these days. Also sounds like Yoda.
