I always thought it was more-GHEN-thee or more-GHAN-thay, but I don't know if that's right....

I think they do say the name on the TV commercial, but I haven't seen it so I can't say how it's pronounced there. When I hear it in my head, it usually has the accent on the second syllable, with a faint "ah" at the end, the way final "e's are pronounced in German. So, it would be something like "Mor-GAN-thuh." But I'm not sure...and it seems no one else is, either, since no one has come forward with a good answer to your question! :-)

If you view the Celestia commercial from Kingsisle, it tells you exactly how it is pronounced. See the link below:

Morganthe is pronouced MORE-GANTH. But I don't really care if I pronounce words the way I say it because it's just how I am. So it doesn't really matter.

As a Dutch speaking citizen, I pronounce it 'Moor-Gain-The', with a rolled R and phlegmy G.
