I would pronounce it Air-uh-sell-ee.
Doesn't it look funny when you spell it phonetically? =)

Just a dream, just an ordinary dream...
as I wake in bed...
and the boy, that boy, that ordinary boy
or was it all in my head?
Did he ask if I would come along?
It all seemed so real.
But as I looked to the door
I saw that boy looking there with a deal.

Correct pronunciation of AraceliAraceli is pronounced ah-rah-THEH-lee in Spain and ah-rah-SEH-lee in Latin America.

Interesting list. I wouldn't have thought Avery, Vance and India were in use in the 1890s.AIR-ah-SELL-ee is the way I've always heard it pronounced by English-speakers.
