Well, I had a prof who speaks and translates Classical Greek who constantly pronounced it "Shyrofon", and affirmed that that was the correct pronunciation for me, but I had always assumed that your pronunciation was the case until that point - it just sounds more Greek. Who knows, there are countless other examples (Thrasymachus/Thrasymakos) of stuff like that so I would imagine that we can just add it to the list; it makes sense to me, always has :)
Fact is, what with the Cher association, I definitely like your version better!

But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
