I've heard Roboute Guilliman pronounced a dozen ways. I pronounce it as though it's a French name (which is probably completely wrong, I know), but:
Ro-boo Gee-i-man
I think it's SUPPOSED to be Ro-boat Gill-i-man. Or you can just go with the ever-popular Rowboat Girlyman, or Rowboat Gilligan. 
Sanguinius is fairly simple - Sang-win-ee-us.
And yes. You must pronounce Emperor as EMPRAH!

For anyone who didn't get it, there's a brand of potato chips/crisps here in Canada named "Lays" which is pronounced the same way as the las from laser.
I always used a Lahz rather than a Lays for lascannon, lasgun, laspistol. It just seems to roll off the tongue better.

Wow sorry guys. I was just trollin with the whole Laz/Las thing. I assumed the good citizens of Dakka had long ago settled the despute.
It's funny the Lays chips thing was brought up. I drew a short comic ages ago in which the first panel was two tech-somethingorothers leaning against a tank. The first line is from one of the two "You can't call it lays... It'd sount like a chip".
BTW Lays is an American brand. Infact its at the top of the food empire. Frito-Lay owns all the Corn(Fritos corn chips) and all the potatoes (Lays potatoe chips) in America. They also own Nabisco, Nestlie and so forth. They also own Tropicana, who in turn owns pepsi and coke, who in turn own McDs, BK, KFC so on and so forth. If you anything from a can, box, bag or bottle in america you're enjoying frito-lay.
