a word of thanks and a question

I would like to thank everyone who gave input to my last post. I received a lot of useful information as well as some great names to add to our list.

Now for the question that is on my mind..
How would YOU pronounce these names.

Gustav and Senia

Again I would like to thank all who respond. All input is useful to us. I would hate to name a child then years later that child coming to me saying "mother, did you know my name is suppose to be pronounced -----?" Could this actually happen, in your opinion?

Sorry, I guess that is a couple questions.

Senia--I think I would say it Sen-ee-ah
Gustav--I think it is supposed to be said Goo-stav, with it being a long u sound? or is is gus-stav??

I am probably way off here!
