Why are people with the surname 'Hughes' called Yozzer in Liverpool?

They are often called Yozzer because in Liverpool, the surname "Hughes" is pronounced "Yuze."
This may also be a carry-over from an iconic television series called Boys From The Blackstuff, first shown late in 1982, which dealt in a darkly humorous way with the chronic unemployment in the area. A central and VERY memorable character was called Yozzer Hughes: being likened to him is NOT normally perceived to be a compliment, and referring to someone as "Yozzer" or "Yozzer Hughes" is commonplace, even outside of the Liverpool area, and 30 years after the series was first broadcast!
