It's probably a regional thing, but here in the South it seems like Tanya (et al) always gets prn. TAHN-yah. The only time I've heard it as TAN-yah was on a woman from Canada.

BTW, I'm not sure how Tanya Tucker's name is supposed to be pronounced, but I've heard it as TAN-yah quite a bit, so if that's the "right" way then my Southern theory of its pronunciation is wrong. lol
