You pronounce it: May Chen (I know this from her explaining her own name in various old TV interviews).

Where did you get this one from?!

"Mädchen" is the German word for "girl" and is pronounced MAED-chen, with "ae" like in "head" and "ch" like in cheeck or chain, but with the tongue close to the palate, similar to the "h" in "hew" and "human", only breathier.

Too funny that amick54321 heard something completely different, and much more sensible from herself (and corresponding to what I said, being a native speaker).
