From now on, I fully intend to pronounce it to go with Outremer, too. I've always loved the word Outremer; the glamour of that word alone was what led me to choose the Crusades as my special subject for Finals.
And I think I can be fairly safe in assuming that the word "outlier" won't come up in conversation that often, so I probably won't have too many embarrassing situations in which I find myself using my deliberate, silly mispronunciation front of Important People. Um, not that this sort of thing has ever happened to me before, of course, oh no. :-D
