I would say

Coo-chih-nelly, with the emphasis on the 'e' in 'nelli', is even more accurate

Parlo Italiano e questo è corretto. In Italian 'cc' is pronounced like ch. Tradernick is more correct because he has the emphasis on the 'chin-elly.'

While we're on it, how about Tyrwhitt?

Tyrwhitt: \\ˈtir-ət\\

i'd imagine it's a higher schwa than the straight up mid central one--maybe i with a bar across it (i dunno what that symbol is called).

Standard American pronunciation - Cooch-in-elli
Affected wanna-be correct Italian pronunciation - Coo-chee-nelllll-ee

It is weird that nobody has noticed the wrong spelling, unless you are not referring to the brand name. It is "cucinelli": www.brunellocucinelli.it

What's the correct pronounciation of Pinocchio??

I'm not trying to rag on anyone, but's it's not spelled "Cuccinelli". It's Cucinelli.

It's pronounced broo-nel-lo coo-chi-nel-li, ragazzi.
