I thought the pronunciation was based on the double vowel i.e. The car and aeroplane manufacturer Saab is pronounced 'Sarb' not 'Sayb' based on that in your example Baal would equal 'Barl'? All very confusing for a Sunday...
For the love of god, no.
SAAB itself should only be pronounced in the same way you would pronounce ROFL or LOL: It's an acronym, not a work and so does not apply to this discussion. Also, find a swedish person and ask them how they would pronounce it - it's guaranteed not to be the same way you do.
Sarb indeed!  I bet you think it's a Volveau too?
As for Bhaalgorn, I would personally pronounce this as Bah-l-gur-n

Perhaps if it had its own jingle we'd recognise it better, despite your admirable, but obviously medicated attempts. Has Kylie Minogue's version of Locomotion been copyrighted yet?
