No idea if this is right though. Dragon Compendium says sa-HWA-gin!

Sa - haw - gwin

 

[Huw]

sa-HWAA-gin.

No idea if that's right or where Gygax got it from, but it does look vaguely Meso-American.

So, how does everyone pronounce Ixitxachitl?

Like it's spelled.

 

[Cheiromancer]

Iks-it-ZACK-ittle. The last syllable is like "little", but pronounced very quickly.

 

[Mark Hope]

ick-zit-za-CHIttle (again, to rhyme with little, but the stress on the I).

Sahuagin come from "sahagin," or "Sea Hag." Aquatic monsters originally similar to greek Sirens. Through D&D and the FF series, they've become manevolent acquatic predators.

Considering the origin, "Sa-HWA-gin"
