That's a Septic site, though, so the word Zeus would probably be pronounced "zoose" (to rhyme with "loose"
Personally (as someone said), I would say it like "zoose" as above, with a bit of a "d" at the start
De Dion I would say as "De" like in "Marquis de Sade" [like my thinking?] and "Dionne" as in
"Dionne Warwick"
