Trying to pronounce carseat company names

So I'm sitting here practicing pronouncing the names of carseat companies. I do lots of posts, but to actually SPEAK these names? Not so much.
Thus, I am making sure I can do that correctly.

Why do they all have names with completely unintuitive pronunciations? LOL!
And now we add Diono to the mix. Fits right in.

These are the ones I think might possibly trip people up.

Britax -- Bry-tax
Chicco -- KEY-koe
Diono -- Dee-oh-noe (We think...)
Evenflo -- Ee-ven-floe
Graco -- Gray-koe
Lamaze -- Luh-mahz
Perego -- Pare-uh-goe
Recaro -- Reh-carr-o

Elaborate on this.

Is it PEAR-uh-go or pear-UH-go or (as I thought) per-AY-go? (Though it's much easier to pronounce "that seat I can't stand")

I thought it was PEAR-uh-go, but it makes sense (in Italian) to be "per-AY-go." The CS reps (at least the ones to whom I have spoken) say "PEAR-uh-go."

Ohhh, that's good to know! I've been saying it wrong for the last 5 years and even owned both a car seat and stroller! LOL

I always said, "pear-eh-go" LOL on the eh being Canadian! ggg

Ok, well then to make sure I'm not mispronouncing the rest of the seat's name, is it PREE-moe vee-AHJ-ee-oh? With the J more like a ZH?

It's the, "Peg pear-eh-go pree-mo vee-ah-gee-o S I P 30/30." Get it right! LOL With a model number long enough to match.

Coccoro= Coke-Oh-Row.. Right?

And since I have heard it both ways.... Combi= Com (like dot . com) Bee? Or Com (like Comb) BEE?

Get Kecia in here to pronounce Maestro... We can all pick on her ;)
