There are a lot of threads on various forums about the pronunciation. Two posts on different forums both state how Townsend pronounced it and both are different, lol!.

Whee-lin
Wh-laylin

According to wikipedia his friends called him Townie.....James Howe naming it 35 Townie would have eliminated all the confusion.
