Now my knowledge of french is very limited, but I can try to guess to guess the correct spelling by cutting it in two parts: Louis-oix

Louis is a common french name (the french version of Luigi, of Nintendo fame), and it's spelt, hmmm.. Luì(s) [accent indicating stress].
Here, listen to it here: http://forvo.com/word/louis/#fr

As for -oix, I'm not 100% sure but it SHOULD sound like another name I know (the painter Delacroix), and sounds more or less like a -wà

Can you hear it? Like du-la-qwa

Put the two things together, and we have something that sounds more or less like Luiwà (in french, the stress seems to be always on the last syllabe) or Luiswà if we hint at the s (almost mute).
This pretty much fits with the japanese spelling ルイゾワ ruizowa

Opinions?
Yup it's French and should be pronounced lou-swar, or more le-swah ..

It's difficult to explain how something should be pronounced through letters phonetically as I know a lot of you guys are American or from other countries to my own. Le-swar sounds entirely different to others as it does here in England, in fact just with different dialects of English you have that issue, but in England we're all quite accustomed to the French Language as it's just a lil south.
