Nobel prize winners 2012 - Pronunciation advice

The Nobel 'week' has started, and the first two awards have been announced. The Medicine prize has gone to John B Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka. Gurdon is pronounced as गर्डन and Shinya Yamanaka is pronounced as शिन्या यामानाका. 

The Physics prize has gone to Serge Haroche and David J. Wineland. Serge Haroche is pronounced as sair-zh ah-row-sh or सेअर्श आरोश (In Hindi I have shown the 'श' sound in Serge, but it is actually the sound of zh in television)
