I'm also German and I actually think it's kinda funny to hear these names pronounced the way they are. Of course it would have been more believeable if the "older" Wesen (which were discovered by the brothers Grimm) would have been written the way it had been back then (although I have to admit I don't know if for example Blutbad and plural Blutbaden would have been correct at that time), and the newer (or rather newly discovered) Wesen - which were discovered by Nick's ancestors who maybe/probably didn't know German that well - would be named in German in an effort to keep on the legacy but not that correctly because they just didn't know any better.

Same goes for the pronunciation. A german Grimm probably would have pronounced them right, but why should an American who doesn't speak one word German pronounce them correctly, especially if he mainly reads their names in his books?

And even Monroe, who speaks German, obviously can't shake his american accent. But that's okay in my opinion. It made me realize though that even though many people laugh about the German accent of many Germans when they are speaking English, but the other way round it's way worse ;-D

The only problem I have is that the actors who were playing Germans or Austrians still had strong american accents. They could have found a few German or Austrian actors for that. But oh well. It's not the end of the world.
