Is it “Camel-uh” or “Cam-ahl-uh”?

Right right right

Oh, I found the video on her Youtube channel literally addressing this question back in 2016:

Did you read the rest of my post? You can’t say “correctly pronounce it”, and then not give instruction. That doesn’t help anyone.

If the video specifically made to teach you how to pronounce her name didn’t help, what makes you think I can?
