in reply to a message by Varuca
In Sweden the name is pronounced AHN-nee-ka, and in the original version of the Pippi Longstocking movie as well.

All of the movies in the US were voice-over dubbed, so that probably has an effect on the perception of the pronunciation. That, and we just pronounce things differently in the US, sometimes even flat-out incorrectly. A good example is Dido. In the US everyone pronounces this "DI-doh" but in Latin it should be "DEE-doh."
I suppose this name's pronunciation will depend on how the parents want it to sound if they are American.
