What's the proper way to pronounce "Nausicaa"? What's the proper way to pronounce "Phaeacia"?

Are these pronunciations accurate? The first one has a high dislike ratio, which made me skeptical.

It has a low rating because the people looking for how to say it are searching because of the Japanese anime movie and not because of Homer. Compare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMGpx1VoOYU

The Fagles has a nice pronunciation gloss. It’s not keyed to the Greek, but to English poetry tradition, which had its own pronunciation for the names, which were frequently mentioned in poems.
