You'll get your revenge by heading up the Pronunciation Police.  
Those who have only read them and never heard them have only their 
own imaginations (as opposed to Fry's/Dale's, also flawed) as 
pronunciation guides.  One day we're all going to meet at a 
convention and then we're going to find out who pronounces Voldemort, 
Cadogan, Bartemius, Animagus etc., correctly (i.e., the same way we 
do).
