Apparently I've been pronouncing IKEA incorrectly.

According to today's Guardian , it should be ee-kay-uh.

In my ignorance, I originally pronounced it eye-kia and, in recent years, switched to ik-ia, neither of which are correct.
Pretty sure their adverts us the ik-ia version.
 
The Swedes say Ee-kay-uh.
The rest of us say Eye-key-uh.
