How do you pronounce Ghoigwnnwd. I think it is Go-win-id or Go-win-d. Am I way off or right on the money?

Ghoigwnnwd
I think its Goi-gun-nud...
EDIT: Just checked, that's how it IS pronounced.
Basically, "gh" is pronounced a bit less harsh (that's the best way I can describe it, any help here?), and "w" is "Double U" in a sense ("oo" sound as in 'do', or "u" as pronounced in german).
Similarly, Cwldon is pronounced "Cooldon/Kuldon" (NOTE: second pronounciation is in german writing), Annwn is pronounced "Anoon/Anun", and so on.
