How the heck do you actually pronounce the brand Anastasia Beverly Hills? I've heard it so many different ways and I just want to make sure I'm saying it correctly.

I Don't know for a fact, but I think it's "Ahn Na Sta Cia"

I've always said it like the name of the Russian princess. Rather than the cia at the end I've always heard it as a "yah" at the end. Like Ahna-stay-zha.

In a video I've watched of hers, she pronounced her name the way Marleen said.

I actually worked with a Russian lady for about 5 years, and that's why didn't recall her ever pronouncing a long A. But I think Americans pronounce it the way Alyx said.

It is her name so I imagine that the way she pronounces it is how she wants the brand to be addressed, but anastasia as a name is really dependent on the person I think. My half sister's name is anastasia and she pronounces it the way I said, and doesn't like the other way its pronounced. But I don't think there's a "wrong" way to pronounce a brand name, since it's pronounced differently in different areas, and you don't translate accents in names easily.

Marleen - it could be, but I'm Canadian and I've only heard the other way in American youtubers or tourists who come here. I.

Alyx, you're right about how most north americans pronounce the name. but I do follow anastasia and her daughter and they always say Anaw-staw-see-ah. they are romanian and macedonian. I was confused at first too.
