I'd say K'kruhk is pronounced like 'Truck' with a bit of an extra 'k' at the beginning.
As well, Nihilus is "Nigh-hill-us" I believe

If it's anything like "nihilism" then it would be closer to "Kneel-us"

I always said Hapes like grapes.
Hay-pees makes me think of Herpes.

C'rook (like "root", just with a "k" at the end)
(at least that's how I'd pronounce it...^^)
Not crook.

I say Kuh-Krook for K'Kruhk, but I suspect that's wrong.
And for C'Baoth, Kah-boh-th (but I think the official pronunciation is see-bah-oth).

I say it as both Kuh-Krook and Kuh-Kruhk.
And Hapes = grapes

Ew. Grapes. Say it ain't so.
Mara is a Hebrew name, so I've always used the Hebrew pronounciation. Pretty sure that's also the correct one.

"Koon" as Kun makes sense to me, but I speak Spanish.
And Hapes rhyming with "grapes" is awful. The "Hayps consortium." Stupid. Hay-pees.
