the way it's pronounced on our campus is "kie" and "fie," so that they both rhyme with Pi. I've never heard it 'officially' pronounced any other way.
Also, I have been pronouncing Ami's last name wrong...and I just caught this today while I was studying for my Kanji test. I've been pronouncing it "Miz-ohu-no" as if it were spelled "Mizouno." I just today relized that there is no 'o' in her name. I kept having to correct myself on the Kanji for water ("mizu") cuz I'd keep trying to add that extra 'o' sound.

According to my reprint of Vol.12, Sailor X has the katakan ka-i and Sailor What the hell is that symbol (the other one) has fu-a-i. So I guess their names are pronounced Kai and Fie, both which rhyme with eye.
