Your IRL pronunciation:






I usually hear the second pronunciation, though it's clearly meant to be the first. The third most common pronunciation, in my experience, is just someone completely butchering it, which would fall under #6.
3, 4, and 5 could probably be combined, just depends on how fast you say it and your accent. The difference between those and #2 is that #2 really emphasizes the TOO-la.

I had to remake this poll because it wouldn't print schwas. The 'a' in 'cha', 'la', and 'ska' are all schwas.

Closest to the second option, but more like Skull-TULL-la.

If that's how you say it, you're #6 with me.
I misread it as a kid and got "skull-lul-ta" in my head. Though now I make an effort to say skull'-too-la.

I don't understand how it's so natural for so many people to emphasize the TULL. It feels like it adds a whole extra syllable. Do skull-TULL-la people fully voice that 'L' sound in 'TULL', or is it more like skull-TUH-la?

The latter for me.
