Chain-ey or Cheen-ey?

[NYC Liberal]

I always though Dick Cheney's name was pronounced "Chain-ey" (that's how I say it), but apparently he says it's supposed to be pronounced "Cheen-ey." How do people here say it?

1. I think its Chain-ey

Though be warned I pronounce Carnagie and Badnarik wrong.

2. I always thought it was Chain-ee too

I've never heard it pronounced any other way :shrug:

5. Douche-nosal is also great

6. CHEENEEY--------He Said It, and So Does Alan SIMPSON

Dick the CHEE-NEEY said that in his home wilderness that's the way it was pronounced, that only in arriving in D.C. did the FRENCH proununciation take over. And asshole ex-Senator Alan SIMPSON, an OLD friend of his, when speaking the name, also sez CHEEEE-NEEEEE.

8. The true pronunciation is SAY-tun
