I pronounce it as neesh but I've gotten used to hearing nitch so I may sometimes use that one as well :p

There isn't a for sure way in saying it because nitch is the American pronunciation


This sort of reminds me of how to pronounce shone
Is it pronounced as 'shawn' (gone)
or 'shown' (bone)

I use neither (neether or nyther?) ... "shone" has a short vowel sound, shawn and shown have long vowels.

Oh wait, I understand now. By "shawn" you mean it to rhyme with "gone" which is a short vowel. As such I pronounce it like that as if there is no 'e' (shon)
I didn't realise there was another pronunciation.

As for niche, I use 'neesh' and it took me a few seconds to figure out what someone meant the first time I heard it said as 'nitch'
