The Pronunciation Key is located at Oxford Learners Dictionaries, with some changes/correction in the transcription:
- /ʌ/ sound like /ə/, but for some reason people writte one when is stressed and other when its not (compare About and bUtter, /əˈbaʊt ˈbʌt̮ər/ according to that dictionary, /əˈbaʊ̯t ˈbətəɹ/ according to usual pronunciation), so will be use /ə/ for both;
- a correction for June [ˈdʒʉwn], often written as /ˈdʒuːn/ that will be used /uw/;
- a correction for R sound (like in Red), usually pronunciated as [ɹ̠ʷ] and will be used /ɹ/;
- added a breve sign (◌̯) in the the weak part of the diphthongs.
- also added an optional, like /i(j)/, that you could or not pronunciate.
Many pronunciations are taken from an email reply by Tom[1]

Here's how I pronounce them, as best as I can write it. Though I always say anyone is entitled to their own way of saying them. Several of the names are actual words. and pronounced the same way, so I provided the dictionary entry which includes a pronunciation button.
I starred the ones that might be different from how you seemed to indicate.
K'eye-dran
Bass-seh-tin
Add-drah-kist
Eff-fem-mur-ral, See here: http://www.dictionary.com/browse/ephemeral
Ed-mund S'eye-rus
Brahn, like brawn. See here: http://www.dictionary.com/browse/brawn
*You-Kerr, like someone from an old timey movie say "you cur!" Again see here: http://www.dictionary.com/browse/euchre
*Ver-rah
*Sah-ree'ah ow Grew'en
*Nah-Tah-Knee (it's sort of Native American-y)
Rod-d'rick Vahn
E'vahls
Nick-o-lie Al-ler-rick
Mad-dah-lehn Add-dah-lay These names are pronounced just like how the names are normally pronounced. Like Adelaide, the city (and person).
Rose-lehn
*Ah-deer-ah
M'ay'v
Sea-lean
Hope that helps!
