How do you pronounce this? Any other info on it you could give me? It's my host mom's middle name. She lives in Brazil, but she is descended from Italian and Austrailian families. The name is feminine (I'm pretty sure.) I don't know anything else about it.-------------------------------------------------

It's spelled Australian :-) *pet peeve*The only possible pronunciation in standard Italian (ie the Tuscan dialect which is their "official" language) is cho-MEE-no (or possibly CHO-mih-no, same sounds but different emphasis). However, if she's from one of the other provinces there may be a provincial pronunciation that is slightly different.
