I have some headcanons about c!Ranboo's opinions on the various pronunciations of their name, so here they are:
(all c! not cc! btw, I just didn't want to write it every time)
Ranboo hates when people pronounce his name "ran-bow", especially after New L'Manburg where it was basically used by the other members of the NLM cabinet to bully and assert power over him (based on a scene from the Butcher's Army stream).
The only exception being when Technoblade does it, because he usually pronounces it correctly and only slips up when he's really excited about something Ranboo's doing or when he's panicked that they're in danger. Basically, Ranboo has it associated with Techno caring about and liking them — it's kinda like a Technoblade exclusive nickname.
Ranboo is perfectly fine with "ran-boo" as a pronunciation, and it's the most common, but they do slightly prefer "rawn-boo". So they won't care or notice if someone's says "ran-boo" but they really appreciate when people pronounce it "rawn-boo" (especially after the whole "ran-bow" debacle, correct pronunciation is especially meaningful)
The exception to this being Wilbur, one of the few people who gets it right the majority of the time and unfortunately also someone that Ranboo is almost always some level of on-guard or uncomfortable around. Basically, Wilbur saying "rawn-boo" feels uncomfortably familiar to Ranboo.
