Do you say, "ah-NEIGH-ess," or, "ah-NHY-ess?" The first one, NEIGH, rhymes with WEIGH, and the second rhymes with WHY.

With Catalan pronunciation is more like uh-nuh-EES, but yeah, it's that.
It's one of my favourite names, I adore it!

I lurch back and forth between two pronunciations.
The first being the correct, French one, "ah-nah-EECE." Think of the perfume commercials lulling, "ah-nah-EECE, ah-nah-EECE."
The second one I use is the lazy one, "a-NAY-iss," or "ah-NEIGH-iss." The author Anais Nin is usually stated in this way (in the U.S.) and I tend to follow suit.
