There are at least two companies here in Houston named Kraueter, and they say it like cow.

Possibly the original German spelling had an "umlaut" over the "a" which was anglicized as "ae" -- a few of the Kraeuter design patents are in DATAMP. -- D46,681 ( http://www.datamp.org/patents/advance.php?pn=D46681&id=28547&set=4 ); D46,682 ( http://www.datamp.org/patents/advance.php?pn=D46682&id=28548&set=5 ) and D59,602 ( http://www.datamp.org/patents/advance.php?pn=D59602&id=42453&set=6 ).
