How do you pronounce your daughter's name?

We have been asked this question so many times since announcing to our friends and family of Chloe's birth.
So here you go.

/kloUi/. "klo-ee". First syllable like "clothes", "close", "clone" without the final consonant. Second syllable rhymes with "be", "fee", "glee", etc.
Emphasis on the first syllable

You can also here it in a song.
Cal Tjader (and his Modern Mambo Quintet) play it and sing it.
There's a clip at http://www.vh1.com/artists/az/tjader_cal/15272/album.jhtml
Look for track 9 and hit the blue icon to listen to a sample of the song :-)

Hope this helps!
