I guess it needs the hyphen, even if that does look wrong.

I mean, you could be super pretentious and use an umlaut...

That only works if you have some idea of what to apply the umlaut to!

I believe the rule is, when you have two vowels next to each other and you want them each pronounced separately, you put an umlaut on the second one. But I have no idea if there are further rules about when you can and can't use this trick.
