I always thought it was markin gortat phonetically. But the announcers say it like March-hin Gortat.

I'm confused on how to say it. What do you guys call him?

It will be more like Mar-[chin]. You can try it with google translate speaker.

Marcin is the same name as Martin in German/English.

Acc. to Buck today, it's MAR-chin GOR-tat (where the "tat" rhymes with "bat," and not with "taught").
