Texas used to be a part of the Mexican country, until that war thing...anyway, the Hispanic influence is still very strong there, and so the pronuncation of those places you mentioned are correct. That is the original pronunciation. Anyone else who wants to americanize those names are doing it wrong, for those are not English based names.
