It is spelled W-a-x-a-h-a-c-h-i-e and was my end-of-the-year spelling test in the 1st grade. The pronunciation tends to get a little screwed up at times, so I'm here to help you with that.
"Wax" - pronounced like "Woks":
Example: I have no idea why I own two woks since I have no idea how to make chinese food. Let's make an omelet.
"A" - pronounced like "uh":
Example: Uhhhhh ... Excuse me, but I believe you have spinach in your teeth.
"Hach" - pronounced like "Hatch"et:
Example: What is the difference between a hatchet and a tomahawk?
"ie" - pronounced like "ee":
Example: If you don't know how to say the letter e then, chances are, you won't be able to find your way to this website in the first place.
So, altogether, Woks-uh-hatch-ee. Wax-a-hach-ie. Hachie, The Hatch, and the like all reference my hometown.
