I am fairly sure it is Toll-keen though until I heard the radio adaptation I thought it was Tol-key-enn. A good clue is his nickname was Tollers not Tolkers.
However I must admit in my desire to get to the stories I neglected the pronunciation guides and it took a very long time to overwrite Sore-on and Seleborn and even when the blessed BBC version cured those, I am still not a hundred percent on Kir-dan - he was Sir Dan for too long...
