How would you pronounce Zephyr?

We're considering this name, but we're wondering if it's too complicated/exotic for the Netherlands.

    Nice name, but he'll have to spell it out, explain how to pronounce it, etc., his whole life.

    Haha you all pronounce it differently than how we originally thought... We'd like it to be pronounced in English: zeffer/zeffur. By the way, it's for a girl.
    Anyway, thanks for your responses! We're still thinking about it...

    If it's about the English pronunciation, I don't think it'll work. I'd really choose something else or just go with Saffier.
