How do you pronounce "Erutaki"? (and other new names)

[ENHenry]

Just as it says... I can't decide between

EH-roo-TAH-kee

or

eh-ROO-tah-KYE

or something else I haven't heard yet.

Anyone else who wants to hazard other words that defy their pronunciation skills, please feel free to add them.

Also, if there is a better consolidated thread already, please feel free to point me to it and I'll ask this one to be closed. I looked before posting, and could not find one.

I pronounce it Erutaki.

Thanks, guys.

The weird part is that I managed to get "Qallupilluk" straight out of the gate. :) Maybe it's the Cthonic-sounding syllables...

That one was tricky to name, since it's transliterated in different ways depending on where you look, including qallupilliut, qallupilluit, qalupiluk, and probably some other ones I'm not remembering now. It's a suitably creepy monster that is a lot of fun. Alas for her cousins, the hoarrua and koloiaq... :(

Ki is always key :)
