Imogene Coca pronounces (pronounced?) her name Ih-moe-gene, as did the rest of the people who worked with Sid Caesar. You might be able to find some tapes from the old shows she was in and they might have the pronunciation during opening or closing credits. :)
Either way, even if they don't have the pronunciation, enjoy. ;)

My wife's aunt Imogene always pronounced her name EYE-mo-gene, but everyone thought she was a little weird, as her parents had given her the standard pronunciation at birth. Oh course, the aunt's best friend Yvonne pronounced HER name WYE-VON, so I guess weirdness attracts.
