You may or may not know that Chef Boyardee's real name was Ettore Boiardi. He changed it to Boyardee so people could pronounce it properly.

PNQ: What other way is there to pronounce "Boiardi"?

Well, I could see "Boy-ee-air-dee", but it's a bit of a stretch. "Bo-yar-dee" would certainly occur to me first.
