I don’t get it. Aren’t they pronounced mostly the same?

I’ll do my best here - “Aristotle” is pronounced “Air-ih-stot-ul” whereas Chipotle is more like “Chip-oat-lee”

Aristotle is only pronounced like that because Aristoteles was somehow too confusing for English speakers.

Just pronounce it oddly enough that people look at you weirdly.

Femalès, with emphasis on the last e. Like “learnèd” (learn-ed, a wise person).
