Name pronunciation

Does anyone have any references for how DGR pronounced Gabriel? I think standard British pronunciation would be 'gay', like the archangel. However, his father Gabriele was Italian and presumably said 'gab'. DGR spoke Italian and admired Dante and other medieval Italians, so there seems a strong possibility he pronounced his own name as 'gab'. Any evidence?
