Pronouncing "Onox"?

Since my last question on pronunciation for a character's name went pretty well, here's another one: Onox.

The main villain of Oracle of Seasons, I've heard his name pronounced "Oh-Knocks" though I've pronounced it as "On-knocks".

Which is the one you think is the correct way to pronounce it?

There's a good chance the name is derived from Onyx, which I believe would be pronounced ON-niks. Although I think that the exact pronunciation of the second syllable, whether you use a short "I" sound, a short "O" sound, or even something similar a short "U" sound, would vary depending on dialect.
