<p>Mainly the chaffee part. Is it CHAH-FEY? OR CHAH-F? How is the A prounounce too.</p>
<p>I think it’s CHAY-fee, but what do I really know? Ha!</p>
<p>CHAF-ee (rhymes with taffy)</p>
<p>Ahhh…thanks soccer_dad ! Now I do know and if it comes up, I won’t embarrass myself. (by mispronouncing something, anyway. There are plenty of other opportunities for me to embarass myself! 
)</p>
<p>Taffy –> chaffy</p>
<p>no, soccer dad is wrong. its chay-fee.</p>
<p>I agree with starz - it is chay-fee (it does NOT rhyme with taffy)</p>
<p>It was pronounced “Chayfee” by the staff when we toured the school several years ago.</p>
<p>Naturally, I’ll defer to the pronunciation of the school staff.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure I can blame my error on Chapstick commercials.</p>
<p>I was a child in the 70’s. Suzy Chaffee, the Alpine Skier, Actress, alleged paramour of Ted Kennedy, and easily the most prominent Chaffee of the era, pronounced her name CHAF-ee (rhymes with taffy.)</p>

<p>Time sure flies.</p>
<p>Is this really a big issue?</p>
<p>I think it is if you are on campus and anxious about saying the name of the school incorrectly.</p>
<p>I went to a Loomis meeting the other day, and the school official pronounced it CHAY-fee.</p>
<p>loo-miss chay-fee</p>
<p>Most people just say Loomis. </p>
<p>School has an interesting history.</p>
<p>loo-mis chay-fee (the end is as in fee, like “to pay a fee”)</p>
<p>Chaffee girl from the early 70s chiming in … it’s CHAY-fee. </p>
<p>In the old days they called us CHAYferrs.</p>
<p>its chay fee.</p>
<p>Loo-mis chay-fee</p>
<p>not a stupid question. I was wondering the same. Past comments were cute.</p>
