How would you pronounce Aine?

Love the name Aine for DD2 but really concerned about the pronunciation (and spelling) issues, ie if someone hears it will they spell it wrong, if they see it will they sat it wrong?

I have a fairly popular late 70's / early 80's name that can be spelt one of two main ways, plus had an unusally spelt and pronounced surname so I'm perhaps oversensitive to the issue as I was bullied at school for correcting my name. Perhaps DD2 would love a more unusual name and will have more confidence (here's hoping) than her shy and sensitive mother!

So, how would you pronounce Aine?

Thanks
