Is it pronounced 'A-lay-na' or 'A-lah-na'?

I think I prefer Eva, but they are both nice.

A-lay-na?
A-lah-na?
A-lann-a?

Eva more likely to be pronounced and spelt right but tbh I don;t like either

Prefer Eva but having said ds has two A-lah-na's in his class!

Prefer Eva but it is also very popular in these parts so would probably go with Alana (A-lah-na)!

As noted elsewhere, it's that Victoria Wood sketch 'Do you know, you've got a look of Eva Braun??' - that makes Eva iffy for me. Prefer Ava.

Don't particularly like Alana. bit trashy (you said be honest!)
