"The pronunciation of my name is Due Boyss, with the accent on the last syllable." -David Levering Lewis W.E.B. DuBois, Biography of a Race, p. 11 The quote above comes from just one person with this surname. It should be noted that name pronunciation is a matter of personal preference. Different people pronounce their surnames differently, regardless of the common origin of the name. If one were to go back two hundred years in the past, another pronunciation may well be in evidence. This word/name can also be pronounced Doo-Bwah or Due-Bwah with the accent on the last syllable, or Doo-Boy or Due-Boy, also accenting the last syllable.
