I pronounce Lieselotte as "Lee-seh-LOTT" (three syllables). Silent E just like Charlotte. Lieselotte is short for Elisabeth Charlotte. Lieselotte (or Liselott) is used in Sweden too but not Hannelore.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams."

Dutch:
LEE-suh-loht (actually very similar to what Sparkles said, so there was no reason to be confused) sometimes LEE-suh-loh-tuh
hah-nuh-LOH-ruh

I know someone named lieselotte and she pronounces it:
Lee-zl-ette, but I always thought that her prononciation went with a different variation of the name.
