Except for obvious cases I go for the French or Alsatian pronunciation and let the person correct me. This is what English speakers are doing too after all. Conversely I don't take it personally when people mispronounce my names (given and family) the first time, especially since the family name is problematic even in France. That being said, it pisses me to no end when someone doesn't make any efforts after a given period of time (like my thesis director who still mispronounce it after 3 years, or can't align few letters properly).
