We have been pronouncing it this way: ahna-stah-see-ah. Are there two different Russian pronounciations? Is the first reply different from the second?

I heard it prounounced ahna-stah-see-ah, by a non English speaking Russian person. It was his daughter's name.I've also heard ahna-STAHS-yah by a Russian-speaker as well.===

Thank you. My boyfriend is Russian and pronounces it Ahan-stah-see-ah but his mother and my russian doctor pronounces it the other way. He insists his way is right. But I have a greek friend who say thats the greek pronunication... So I was just curious.
