Leonyx? I've been going with le-O-nicks, maybe le-o-NICKS?
Also Aymhelin? AIM-hel-ene?

Same here.
It would help if we knew some real life language that the elvish was based on and how the vowels work in that language.
for that matter, the rules for accenting a language like English versus that elven could differ as well.
Leonx, as @Aetheriac posts above seems about the only way to get it to work. Aymhelin, I’m less sure about. I’ve been treating the ay as the I in chime, then the e and I as short, accent on the first syllable.
For me, it's lee-onyx and am-in-****... sorry, I meant am-****-in.
Edit: wow, that's a sensitive chat filter. But what I intended should be easy to figure out; I'm not going to try to get around the filter.
Edited by XeltoI pronounce Aymhelin "aim-eh-lin". Leonx is "lee-ahnks" to me, as Aetheriac said.

Yeah, I sonetines say "leen" and sometimes say "lihn". It depends on how much I'm trying to say sit like an elf. I imagine "lihn" is the Daqan pronunciation and "leen" is the Latari pronunciation.
Lee-ahnks and am-heh-lion
I've been pronouncing them lee-onx and I'm-hellin.
I'm fairly sure there is someone working at FFG whose sole job is creating difficult to pronounce names.
Only slightly less sure than I am that FFG was actually founded by a sentient token punching machine.
Argh, I could have sworn there was a y in Leonx.
There should be. *grumbles*
I'm in the lee-ahnks camp, and aim-hel-lin with the accent on the first syllable. Though, to be honest, I usually just call them Scions because it's easier to spell and there's no mystery to its pronunciation.
I pronounce it “Cats” and “trees”

Are flesh rippers going to pose a problem? They're also arguably "cats".

Bone cats?

“Rippers,” “Xenoes” (as in Xenomorphs), or “Little ****ers” when I am painting them
Le ahnks, it is 2 syllables, no additional letters allowed
Mostly I pronounce it cats
