in reply to a message by Mika
Amarante- ah-mah-RAN-tee
Evadne- eh-VAD-knee
Elijah- ee-LIE-jhah/zha (I would pronounce both those end-bits the same, with a soft j sound)

okay, thanks! When you say "eh-VAD-knee" what sound is the "eh" part? "Ay" (like Canadians say it) or "ehh" with a softer sound?

Well, with my English accent, it's kind of like 'ih' (as in the sound that the letter I makes). With an American/Canadian accent, I think that translates as 'ehh' (soft sound).
