I've wondered, I've tried. But I can't seem to wrap my tongue around it. Who knows how it's pronouced?

Almost like Matilda. Clotilde/Matilda. At least that what she said in one of her catalogs years ago.

I recently called them with a question I had and the gal who answered the phone said "CLO TIL DEE". I always wondered myself how to pronounce it.

I'm betting they know how to pronounce it if they work there.
