Nene as in NEEN? OR Nene as in NEN?
Do you say Obscene or Obsen? just asking like.
To be fair it should be pronounced NEEN, as the E on the end would capitalise the vowel within the word. Even so, it's the Nen where you dwell.

HEAD KNIGHT OF NEN: Nen! KNIGHTS OF NEN: Nen! Nen! Nen! Nen! Nen! DAVID: Who are you? HEAD KNIGHT: We are the Knights Who Say... 'Nen'! RANDOM: Nen! DAVID: No! Not the Knights Who Say 'Nen'! HEAD KNIGHT: The same! GARY: Who are they? HEAD KNIGHT: We are the keepers of the sacred words: Nen, Cobblers and Booooooooooooooo! DAVID: Those who hear them seldom live to tell the tale! HEAD KNIGHT: The KNIGHTs Who Say 'Nen' demand a sacrifice! DAVID: KNIGHTs of Nen, we are but simple travelers who seek the League of One somewhere far far above us. HEAD KNIGHT: Nen! KNIGHTS OF NEN: Nen! Nen! Nen! Nen! Nen!... DAVID: Ow! Ow! Ow! Agh! HEAD KNIGHT: We shall say 'Nen' again to you if you do not appease us. DAVID: Well, what is it you want? HEAD KNIGHT: We want... a shrubbery! [dramatic chord] DAVID: A what? KNIGHTS OF NEN: Nen! Nen! Nen! Nen! DAVID and PARTY: Ow! Oh! DAVID: Please, please! No more! We will find you a shrubbery. HEAD KNIGHT: You must return here with a shrubbery or else you will never win again ! DAVID: O KNIGHTs of Nen, you are just and fair, but instead of a shrubbery could we give you a Calder Wood. HEAD KNIGHT: One that wears a nice suit. DAVID: Of course. HEAD KNIGHT: And not too expensive. DAVID: Yes. COLIN: See you Saturday lads

Does BP stand for Big Prat?
This is like the scone and scon(e) debate. There are loads of words that end in what is known as a silent "e"
This includes, but is not limited to, the following:
bite hate late skate cute ripe tape spoke wrote page lime frame line plane mane scene come came tame time crime fare scare rose wise loose grease
But I keep forgetting that you don't have schools in Fen Drain country.
Oh and it's scon(e), for the record.
I fear you've just shot yourself in the foot with most of the words mentioned above. The "e" on the end of the word usually changes the sound of the vowel within the word to the more rounded sound. eg,. Man to Mane, rip to ripe etc etc. So, following you're own logic, it should be as in NEEN, and maybe the schools in the Fen Drain County are not as bad as you first thought! You're right though, I would NEVER say NEEN. . . Nen all the way, and I'm also a Scon man too!

The original name was Nen, see this link. from 1868 "RIVER NEN, (or Nyne), a river of county Northampton, rises at Chapel Well, near Naseby, and passing through part of Cambridgeshire, falls into the Cross Keys Wash, near Sutton St. Mary, in Lincolnshire. http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/CAM/Miscellaneous/index.html
