I've always pronounced Zooey "zow-ee", long o, long e. If someone from Mattel Toys is reading, I recommend a "Salinger See N Say" so this issue can be resolved once and for all! Or you "Wheel Of Fortune" boys, get "Franny and Zooey" on the big board so Pat can help all American's with this pronunciation dilemma. Better yet, Oprah, where are you when we need you!?!?
