Just wondering which pronunciation others would assume?

And/or which you prefer?

Anna-stah-sia. I had a cat with this name, named after the Grand Duchess.

Russian pronunciation: An-na-STASS-sia

Yes and the murdered grand Duchess Anastasia is probably the most famous

I only know one pronounced Ana- stay- zia, so I would assume that was how it was said.

Depends where you are.
I'd imagine if you're in an English speaking country, the first pronunciation would be assumed, whilst in most other countries, the second.
