Zooey Deschanel – the actress who portrays Tricia McMillan a.k.a. Trillian in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

Zooey - does it rhyme with “gooey” or “doughy”?

Deschanel –

  • de - “day” or “duh”?

  • sch - “sh” as in U.K. “schedule” or “sk” as in U.S. “schedule”?

  • anel - as in “PANel” or “chaNEL”?

As I heard on some entertainment program the other day:

Zooey = Doughy

  • de - **“day” ** or “duh”?

  • sch - “sh” as in U.K. “schedule” or “sk” as in U.S. “schedule”?

  • anel - as in “PANel” or** “chaNEL”?**

Accent on the “day.”

None of the above. It’s pronounced, “yummy.”
