aCKio- its the latin pronunciation, since accio means 'I summon' in latin.

aTCHio, because in romanian you always pronounce ci : tchi. It just came natural to do the same for this spell. :D

atzio is how I pronounced it because the Italians pronunce two c's like "tz". I've never really thought about it before.

By the way I'm not Italian just spent a lot of time in Italy.
