If you could give it to me in IPA symbols, all the better!

Thank you!

Yo as in Yoyo
Av as in Avraham (sort of an aahv)

Ash is in Oshkosh
Ri as “ree”
El

What @elbanditoroso said, with emphasis on the AV and EL

So “yo-AV ash-ree-EL”

Great, thank you, @elbanditoroso and @Rarebear.
For those who are curious, Yoav Ashriel is (was?) a choreographer of Israeli folk dances.
