I thought it was cheek-o until I heard the lady at the baby store say it the proper way, key Co.

Ok so if it's pronounced Key-ko then why is it KeyFit and not ChiFit??

I used to say it Chee-ko but learned from the Buy Buy Baby representative, its Key-Ko.

I was saying Chee-ko, until I read somewhere that it's Key-ko. Even knowing it, though, my first instinct is Chee-ko. I have to catch/correct myself.

I've never said it out loud, and honestly, have never really thought about how it was pronounced. In fact, in my head, I think "Chee-chee-o" even though I know there aren't enough letters. Ha!

Yup, kee-koh. Apparently it's Italian (or so the sales rep told us).

On the ads at the bottom it says "pronounce key-co" so that's what we do...!
