Kahlil Gibran not Khaleel
so there is the correct spelling and pronounced as Kal El or Kal IL
but not the snake, or EEL ::LOL:: https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQpbWjdyr2xGOSilwkR8pPAZKcAnd8IoufR9SzA4EMrlc3NNW0Eu7T0KGo

regardless of EE or I - the name is pronounced the same!
there are other reasons for spelling out the vowels in arabics - it has nothing to do with pronunciation.
