My family pronounces it Say-Koh. I was told that the pronunciation was changed because of a family dispute a few generations ago between two brothers; my ancestor changed the pronunciation to create distinction from his brother, I believe. I found a fourth cousin of mine who also pronounced it Say-koh if that helps you trace back to when it might have changed for some of us. It does seem quite a bizarre way to pronounce the name, though, all things considered.
