Marshallinseln

Ebeye ist die am dichtesten besiedelte Insel des Kwajalein-Atolls und des gesamten ozeanischen Staates der Marshallinseln.

Because most of the modern Marshallese residents of Ebeye don't have family roots on the island, the American pronunciation has stuck, and is the usual name for Ebeye among the island's current population.
