Woo-stah-sure.
I just saw a sign this morning that said “Irish Wristwatch - now you know you can’t pronounce it”. The sign was right.
Woo shir shir shir sauce

There’s a British surname, Featherstonhaugh. Many of the people with it pronounce it “Fanshaw.”
Wooster-shire
I hear “Were-Chest-Sure” around here.
Depends on how you pronounce shire. Americans tend to pronounce it like the hobbit place when it’s more like “shuh”.
I’m from New Jersey and I pronounce it Wuh-stah-shur. I think that’s reasonably correct?
I second this pronunciation.
I do Woor-cest-er-sure.
Also northeast US but a lot less pin downable. I think of it like a slurred “war-chest” sound. But the “C” seems unused by most.
Wait, Tolkien was English. He didn’t mean “Shire” to be pronounced like we Americans do it?

Wooster shire
Wor-chess-ter-shy-'r.
I like your style.
The “worce” part is pronounced like “worse”, so worse-ter-shy’r.
Isn’t it not more sha than shy’r?
Yep, but they were spelling it phonetically and I just wanted to point out that their syllables are wrong. I think once you realize “worce” is one syllable, the pronunciation makes a lot more sense.
No thanks! I pronounce it exactly as it is spelled
