Well, that's not a very common name. Sounds a little arhcaic to me, though
it may be more common in other areas. I'll give it a try in IPA:
['ryprEx]
Where [r] is the Dutch /r/, for which I am not sure about the proper
phonetic transcription. Some speakers would pronounce the final /t/ as [t],
and the /p/ may be somewhat voiced.
