Ahn-TEE-go-nee if you want the original Greek pronounciation. English slaughters it a bit.

Pavlos, while you are here...My cat is called Zorba. Is it true that it means "live every day" in Greek?

I am slightly embarrassed to admit that Zorbas is actually derived from the Turkish word "zorba" -- a member of an irregular militia leading a life of looting, rape and violence :P
