Having only ever read about Jim Cellini I'd never heard his last name pronounced until recently.
I'd always assumed it was as it appears to me which is "Suh-linni" or even "cel-linni" first syllable more like "Sell" right? I've been advised that it is actually pronnounced with a "Ch" sound like Cellist, "Cha-linni" having never met the man myself, I have no idea. Proper pronnounciation for Cellini please?

His birth name was actually Richard Timothy Sullivan.
He introduced himself to everyone as (Cha-Lean-E) on
the advice from a trusted mentor.

No worries. I tried spelling it out but never got the hang of phonetic spelling...who versus hoo versus woo... It confuses me...

Thanks for this. I, too, have pronounced this incorrectly for years.
