My name is Shania but I go by the nickname "Anya" since it's pronunciation tends to confuse people. I pronounce it as "Shawn-ia" instead of "Sha-nye-a".

My name is Shania but I pronounce it "Shah-nye-ah", much like the country star.

It can also be pronounced Shaniyah. But I personally prefer Shania.
