There are some names whose tone marking do not result in a good automatic pronunciation. Names like "Alókoláró", for instance, which is actually pronounced as "Alókoláàáró". But because the TTS system picks its pronunciation guide from the spelling of the name rather than its pronunciation guide, we have issues where the generated audio is bad.

It's the same with a name like "Níke" which is pronounced "Nikẹ̀ẹ́". Or "Olúwanífẹmi" which is pronounced "Olúwanífẹ̀ẹ́mi." There are many more.

Solution: Make the TTS API pick its audio guide from the "syllable breakdown" field. That way, it can be editable/customizable.
