Pronunciation of Sian in the US
In the US, Sian is primarily classified as a first name. The American pronunciation, specifically in Saco, Maine, US, is
Spell it like Siân, pronounce it like Sh - ar - n.
Welsh origin - the English equivalent is Jane.
The 'Si' is pronounced 'sh' as in ship, shout and shed. The 'â' is elongated by the circumflex (or in Welsh - to bach (toe bac-ck) - which means little roof) so is pronounced like an 'ar' as in start, bar and car. The 'n' is a short sound, as in can, pan and run.
"Male form is Siôn (English variation of this is John)"
