i say shi-va becuase i think it sounds better since she is ice. but i assume that it is taken from shee-va, the hindu god or whatever it is (its hindu right? vishnu, shiva, and that other dude?), so its probably supposed to be pronounced that way.

I have always said "Shee-va" as well. Even though it does make more sense to say it like "Shiver", since she is cold and all, I just never really did that.

Plus, remember the hyena in The Lion King that Whoopi Goldberg played the voice of? Think of when and how she kept saying "MUFASSSSSA!". It sounds cooler to say "SHEEVA" than "SHIVAH" to me. 🙂
