B.

Or maybe "few-till". I'm sounding it out now and it's driving me nuts because I can't tell if I'm saying "till" or "tull" lol

I'd have to assume Star Trek utilizes translation convention of some sort for its English.

Going into this topic I was convinced "few-tile" was the one, but thinking about it more I have to say I use both pronouniations...maybe even "few-tull" more often.

Doesn't necessarily mean same pronunciation, since their bodies are used to making sounds a slightly different way. It's no different from keeping part of their accent, etc.
