But there’s also Siena also see-EN-a
I agree with majority, I would pronounce it lee-EN-a or LEE-en-a

that’s said, I think average Joe would pronounce it two instead of three syllable. We’re on nameberry after all.

i’m not sure what the ‘real’ pronunciation would be, but my first instinct is definitely lee-EN-uh (sort of like leanna). i could also easily see LEE-nuh and maybe even LYE-nuh as an option.
