I've always called it a Qpon myself. But for the sake of those "coo-pon"folk, the verb "to cut" in French is pronounced "COO-PAY" (couper is how you spell it in French). Just a little trivia...

Here in Idaho I don't think I've ever heard it Qpon, I'm a coo pon girl. This is what the pronounciation from the dictionary says... /ˈkupɒn, ˈkyu-/ So both are correct!
