Lynn-NAY-ah. That's how I pronounce it, and I think that's also the Scandinavia pronunciation.

I always thought it was LIN-ee-uh.

I would say Lin-AY-uh. Now, if the e and a were reversed, it would be just Lin-AY.

I think that either Lin-AY-uh or LYNN-ee-uh would be fine.

I know two people named Linnea, and they both pronounce it lin-NAY-uh.
