I always correct people who call it keenwha
I tell them it is pronounced kwin-oh-ah.
When they correct me back I ask them what they call the cured pork sausage from Spain (chorizo), when they say cho-ritz-oh, I say, "If you say words with english rules, it's kwin-oh-ah, if you do not then it is chore-eeth-oh. Choose."
