In Dutch www is faster. Never understood why one would give a letter a name that consists of 2 parts.

Usually same as our compound letter "ij", similar but not quite how you'd prononuce the word "eye". Less commonly it's pronounced as "i-grec" (greek i) or "ypsilon".

i-grec (but English sound for "e" just like in Dutch) is the French way as well.
