How Do YOU Pronounce "Melee"?

I speek American goddam it and we say Mee-lee

May-lay.

I pronounce it the only way that it should be pronounced: correctly.

May-lay, I suppose Mey-ley is close enough though. 
 
I blame Super Smash Bros. Melee, it made me say it that way!

May-lay.

Mel A

May-lee. I'm wrong; I know I'm an idiot. I'll work on it.

I've noticed that a lot of people say Mee-Lee when they pronounce the word and it bugs the hell out of me.

Mey-ley makes it sound like something twelve year old girls hang out and do at the park after ballet practice.

MEE-LEE MOTHERFUCKER.

Edit: I know mey-ley is correct and all, but I refuse to pronounce it that way.

Mee-lee. I didn't even knew there was another way to say it.

Funny, as I never knew anyone pronounced any way other than May-Lay.

Mey-ley.

Mey-ley

It's Mey-ley Island.

I pronounce it "muh-lie". Why? Are there other ways to pronounce it?

Mel - A

Mey-ley.

Mee-lee is wrong. Admit that you are wrong. WRONG.

Muh-Luh

Mey-ley is the correct way. All others are wrong.

I learned it from Jeff during a Gamespot video review like 6 years ago or something. So i say may-lay.

May I lay down my answer? I pronounce it "May-lay" because that is how my countrymen say it.

Neither, because I pronounce it meh-lay.

The bad part is the narrator screaming "SUPER SMASH BROS MEELLLEEEEEEEEEEE".

I've had this debate with my friends for a long time, and I've always pronounced it "may-lay" or "mel-ay".

In my mind, I always mispronounce it "mee-lee", but because I know it's pronounced "may-lay", when I speak, that's what I say. I can make errors in my head and no one will care.

I'll think in terms of meelee, but I actually think it sounds like this

I say hittin' dudes.   Melee sounds too fancy.

May-lay.

Mee-lee just sounds silly.

Mee-Lee
