I'm glad you brought this controversy up. My dad has always said Ca-rib-bee-an while my mother prefers Ca-ra-bee-in. As such I've sort of always done the same thing and switch of between pronunciations.

I'm no saint though. I pronounce "both" with an L, so it sounds like "bowlth". I also pronounce the B in subtle (I don't say "suddle" or "suttle" but "SUB-tull"... although I'm not sure if that's technically a correct way to say it either.
