Anya pronunciation in the UK

After deciding on the name Anya (thank you those who helped) i have realised that it can be pronounced in a few ways. I like Ann-ya (as in ‘an’ apple). Is this the most common in the uk?
I have seen:
Ann-ya (my favourite)
Arn-ya
Awn-ya
On-ya
How would you pronounce it and is Ann-ya wrong?
Thank you!

I've only ever heard it pronounced Ann-ya but I've heard Tann-ya & Tarn-ya for Tania. I always presumed that difference depended on accent.
