Pronunciation of Ashana

It is probably pronounced Ash (as in cigarette ash), ah na. Thus Ash-ah-na, with emphasis on 2nd syllable, ah (long ay sound). That's probably how English/British people would say it.
If an Indian name, perhaps Ashana is pronounced with equal emphasis on all 3 syllables. Thus Ash-an-a similar to Indian word for a hatha yoga posture, Asana.
Good to know which of these is correct ... Or if they are both wrong, what is the correct pronunciation ?
Have 2 CDs of Ashana chanting with crystal bowls ... divine sound, so if anyone knows right way to say Ashamed, let's hear it !! I'm Dee from U.K
