I say ann-uh-STAY-zha. I’m not sure how to write out the way I say the ‘zh’ part- it’s like the way you say the ‘sia’ part in the word [name_f]Asia[/name_f]. (I hope that makes sense)

I automatically say an-uh-STAY-zha like [name_f]Asia[/name_f], because that’s more popular here. But I do actually prefer an-uh-STAH-zee-uh!

I say ah-nuh-STAY-zhuh, but there is definitely more than one correct pronunciation for this one.

I was in a class at school that bizarrely had 3 Anastasias, each with a different pronunciation:

Anna-STAY-zhuh
[name_f]Anna[/name_f]-stuh-see-uh
[name_f]Anna[/name_f]-STAR-zee-uh

Anna-stay-zhuh

But I know people who pronounce it as ana-staw-zee-uh and ana-staw-see-uh as well.

ann-uh-STAY-zhuh is the only way I’ve heard it. The “zhuh” sound is similar to the sound the S makes in “measure”.

15

I would say [name_m]Ah[/name_m]-nah-STAH-see-ah

The only person that comes to mind besides the Disney character is [name_f]Kylie[/name_f] [name_m]Jenner[/name_m]’s best friend. [name_m]Just[/name_m] now went to see how she pronounces it (since she’s based in an [name_f]English[/name_f] speaking country so thought it’d be a good reference). She pronounces it [name_m]Ah[/name_m]-nah-stah-SEE-ah

I’ve known a couple of Anastasias, both pronounced anna-STAY-zha (with the last two syllables pronounced like [name_f]Asia[/name_f]) :slight_smile:
