From what I understand, the Eu is pronounced like Ef.

I used to work with a guy named Eutychios. He went by George.

    In the case of Eytychios, the E-Y diphthong is indeed pronounced as Ef but in the case of Eyripidis it is actually pronounced as Ev I'm afraid (as in Europe -- Eyropi -- is pronounced Ev-ro-o-pee). Sorry for the inconvenience 🤣
