How do you pronounce Orionis?

Nice site to check pronunciations, for example Betelgeuse:
http://www.forvo.com/search/betelgeuse/

PS: The Orionis pronuciation on their site sounds very French (and yes, it is pronounced by a French man), but in itself it is how I pronounce it too apart from the accent.
