Pronunciation of Cuenca

The last name, as well as the name of the cities, is pronounced: KWEN - kuh the first syllable rhyming with "when". This is my own last name, and I have never heard it pronounced "KOON - kuh". In addition, "KWEN - kuh" is the pronounciation provided by the Merriam Webster dictionary for the names of the cities in Spain and Ecuador.
