Pronunciation of Drouillard

Drouillard is a common French last name, and is often pronounced like it sounds (DREW-LARD).
Actually, since it's French, the "L" is pronounced like a "y" (hence that fact that the French word "famille" is pronounced "fa-MEE", not "fa-MEEL").
In addition, the "r" is not pronounced like a "r", but more like a deep gargling in the back of your throat (I'm sorry, I'm not good with words).
So Drouillard is pronounced like:
Drew-yee-(gargling)ard
