It's listed as a male half-orc name in 5e PHB.

The question review process is telling me this question is "subjective and… likely to be closed", but the "similar question's list" turns up other pronunciation questions with upvotes and answers.

If it is assumed to have a Celtic/Gaelic origin, then it is pronounced "vurren" or "wurren".

Most of my examples would come from the names of Scottish mountains - e.g. Sgurr a' Mhaim, Sgurr Mhurlagain, Sgurr Mhic Coinnich, where the Mh is pronounced "v". (See here for spoken examples.)

In Irish gaelic is would be more of a "w" sound when occurring at the start of a word: "wurren" (e.g. see here.)
