"Chimene "Chemmy" Mary Alcott (born July 10, 1982 in Twickenham, Middlesex, Greater London) is the current British number one alpine skier. Named after Sophia Loren’s character in the 1961 film El Cid."

- Taken from Wikipedia.org.

Chimene seems to be French, from the name Ximena. which I guess in French would be pronounced like shimeena.
