It's always bugged me that "Dartmouth" is pronounced like "dart-mith." First of all, it's just not phonetic. But more importantly, Dartmouth pronounced as "dart-mowth" sounds like an X-Man who can shoot darts out of his or her mouth. Such a squandered opportunity. But Dartmouth does have one thing going for it: Stephen Colbert went there, and he's on the cover of their alumni magazine this month.
