Well that's a relief, I don't like saying it 'Nollins'. Its okay for the natives, but I just sound funny.
The way I say it is 'New Orlunz' .

As far as I know, its on the 'Or'.
I like accents. We moved alot growing up. As kids you pick up accents pretty easily. Lets see, my accents went from North Tx to Minnesota, then Upstate New York, then Central TX, then East Tx, and back to North Tx. I did all that while in Elementary and High School. East Tx accents are similiar to West Tx accents (Dubya), but I can always tell the difference.
