Ebisédian: [,?@\bi's@\:dj@n]
Or, the native name, _ni 3bis33'di d3 3t3mii'_:
[ni ?@\bi's@\:di d@\ ?@\t@\'mi:]
Tamahí: [tama'hi]
Tatari Faran: [ta'ta4i fa,4an]
Also, some errata: 'maggelity' is named after Christophe Grandsire's
conlang, Maggel, which sports an orthography that has a completely
counterintuitive correspondence with actual pronunciation. I think the
original word was an adjective, maggelitous or maggelitinous. (I may
have coined the latter. :-P)
IIRC, Etabnannery was also named after someone's conlang, but I forgot
whose.
