I have a relative named Sayen, but she spells it Sayene. Her mother is Chilean. It suits her well and sounds very feminine to me. She pronounces it "Sah-YEN".
The 'y' in Sayen is pronounced like a soft 'g' in English - like in 'massage' or 'beige' (jj /j/)The 'a' is also soft /ä/ (or sah) - like the second 'a' in 'massage' [from the dictionary: mas·sage /məˈsäZH, məˈsäj/ ]So, use the second syllable of the word 'massage' and the first syllable of the word 'enter'.../säZH'en/ or /säj'en/
