A couple of questions about names for anybody who can help

How do you say Barbara Palvin? PAL-vin? Pal-VEEN? How about Anne Vyalitsyna?

For those that don't know Magdalena Frackowiack is froants-KO-viek...at least I think ;-)

Barbara Palvin is from Hungary. Therefore, I guess there are two ways to pronounce her name. As they say it in Hungary originally, or as they say it in the English speaking international top-model world!

Here is a comment I've found on a board
...
Hi, I'm also Hungarian, and in Hungarian we normally pronounce everything the way it's written. So you actually have to pronounce the r-s. But of course she wants to sound better in English, so she says it like the others abroud.. But even her voice is different in Hungarian, if you listen to it.
