A Kraut via Russia and Argentina, most likely, to be fair. This may have a bearing on the pronunciation of his name. Or maybe not.

I have a system for this one.

Simply say the word 'cowt' in a strong Wigan accent.

'Kuyt' is what you get.

If think it should be somewhere between an 'h' and a 'k'. I also think it means bread. Anyone know any better?

Yes.

In Belarusian it's spelt with a Г (G). Not sure why we transcribe it with an H, unless it's something to do with the Russian word for 'bread'.
