How would it be pronounced?

Ay-dree-uh

Aaa in apple, Aaaa-dree-uh

Or ah in father, Ahhh-dree-uh

I could see it being pronounced multiple ways, which would get tiresome.

Knowing it's a form of Adrian I would say AY-dree-uh, but if I just saw Adria on its own I might say the A like apple.

I just naturally say it like Adrian without the n: AY-dree-uh
That's how the mother I met said her daughter's name.
Adrian is different in other languages, so Adria would be as well - it's a nonissue IMO, IRL people almost always learn names by hearing before they read them.
