So I am liking this name. I am hearing it pronounced two different ways. the name is Ansehen. I am hearing it pronounced [name_f]Ann[/name_f]-see-hen then i am also hearing it pronounced Ansen also. which way would you say it?

Ahn-zee-en

If it were used as a name then I’d assume it were AHN-seen. It reminds me a lot of Ansehelm, the Old Germanic form of [name_m]Anselm[/name_m].

I don’t recognize it as a name - is it a last name or family name? Ansehen is a [name_m]German[/name_m] noun meaning “prestige,” so I would pronounce it that way: UN-zeh-hen.
