It actually sounds either /wɑ̃n.es/≈"WAH^N-N-ehs" (in Nothern and Western Brittany) or /wɑ̃n.ez/≈"wah^n-n-EHZ" (in Southern Brittany). In Breton one always pronouce "an" and "ann" /ɑ̃n/≈"AH^N-N": first a nasal "A" like the French /ɑ̃/≈"AH^N" in "français", "en masse" or "flambé", then a "N"; like if one pronouced the French word "ennui"/ɑ̃n.ny.i/≈"AH^N-NUY-EE" while skipping the "UY-EE" at the end.

Never heard of it, but it slightly reminds me of oat, which is interesting for some reason, I like it! A good girl name.
