アーナ (think "Ahna"—like how Arnold Schwarzenegger says his name--a Britisher version of "Arna")
アルネ (think "Arnay" like the "ar" in "army" and then "nay" like when a politician votes "nay")
アーネ (think Ahnay with the variations explained above for Ahna and Arnay)

There is an audio recording of me (hilariously) attempting to pronounce your name and then saying these same four name katakanizations in the same order they're contained here. It's about 300KB and is an MP3.
