I think if you're having trouble yourself and everyone else reading it then chances are the baby will end up with an easier to say nn.

Italian pronun.

Chi (as in chitty chitty bang bang) - ri (I'm hearing a short i like fish) - a (like a in apple) - co (as in .co.uk... but a tad shorter on the o). word Stress . light . on first syllable.

DS has said it ten times, the above is as near as I can tune my English ear to his vowels.
