Sorry... As a linguist and En. teacher, "PronOUnciation" is one of my pet-peeves.

My pronunciations come from the way friends, acquaintances, and pop culture pronounces them.

---

Candace: Can-diss.
Lorena: Laure-ayna
Lea: Lee-uh or Lay-uh.
Ivan: I-vin.

Matej- Mat-AY
Candace- CAN-das
Anica- Ana-KA
Lorena- Lor-EE-nah
Lea- LEE-ah
Ivan- IVE-an
Janica- Jun-EE-kah
Leandrea- Lee-ANN-dree-ah

This is how I pronounce them:

---

Matej: ma-TAY
Candace: CAN-dis
Anica: UN-its-ah
Lorena: lo-REN-a
Ivan: EE-vun
Janica: YA-nits-ah
Leandrea: lee-un-dre-a

Matej: MAH-tay
Candace: KAN-dəs
Anica: AH-nee-tsah
Lorena: lo-RE-nah
Lea: LE-ah
Ivan: EE-vahn (or ee-VAHN if spelt Iván)
Janica: YAH-nee-tsah
Leandrea: le-ahn-DRE-ah?

Matej -no idea!
Candace -Can-DISS
Anica -ANN-Ic-ah
Lorena -LOR-EE-NA
Lea -LEE-uh
Ivan -EYE-van
Janica -YA-Nic-uh
Leandrea -LEE-Andrea

ma-TAY
CAN-diss
AN-i-ka
lo-REE-na
LEE-ah or LAY-a
EYE-van
JAN-i-ka
lee-AN-dree-a (Like Andrea)

First one is pronounced Matey (the j= y)
Anica is Anitsa
Lorena is Lorehna (I think)
Ivan is eevahn
Janica is Yanitsa
