Native English speakers naturally use the soft G as in legion or ledgend if the first time they encounter the word Legian is in written form. Candidasa is another common mispronounciation as English sprekers read it as a hard C as in could.

How do you pronounce the sirnames Cockburn and Featherstonehough
Don't cheat and scroll down.
Cockburns don't pronounce the k for fairly obvious reasons, and Feathstonehough is
pronounced Fanshaw. The wonders of English.
