I wonder if her parents couldn't agree, and so combined the names they liked? I had a friend growing up whose parents did that. She is Tinessa, from Tina and Vanessa.
It's pronounced with a schwa instead of a short "i"...so like Vanessa with a "T" instead of a "V." I grew up with her so it's hard for me to think of it as anything but a normal name. :)
