Pronunciation: say-SHELL
It probably comes from the name of the island country, the Republic of Seychelles (say-SHELZ).
The islands were named after Jean Moreau de Séchelles, Louis XV's Minister of Finance.

Say-SHELL. It's spelled the same way as the Seychelles Islands, which doesn't surprise me considering people name their kids China, Zealand, and Croatia now.

sei - hell. That's how i read it, like the island Seychelles. Don't know if it means sea shells indeed though.
