Earrindo✭✭✭✭✭Ah-ne-queena perhaps?
Though if the vvardenfell pronunciations continue, it'd be more like

✭✭✭✭They did say it a few times in the reveal vids for Elsweyr.
"An-eh-quin-ah", with the stress on the second syllable "eh", IIRC.
But, this is not how I have been pronouncing it for the last ten years and more. And, we all know how bad Americans are at pronouncing foreign place names
So, sitting in my own little world here, I'm going to stick with...
"An-eh-kee-nuh" with the emphasis on the "kee"PC EU1 -

But... it IS pronounced key. Americans changed the spelling, hence "Key West" etc.2 -

If "an-eh-quin-ah" is the official pronunciation, then that's how it is.

ah - NE - quin - ah
It turns out from those new lorebooks in the PTS (and now in-game) that it could actually have been renamed after a certain queen and moon priest of the Ne'Quin-al pride, called Anequina Sharp-Tongue! I wonder what she did to have been worthy of such an honor, or if it was her involvement in the story of those books.0
