Shania is the same in English and in Italian. The proper name in question traces its origins back to the Ojibwa for "on my way" and therefore translates literally as Vado via in Italian. The respective pronunciations will be "sha-NEYE-a" for the loan name and "VA-do VEE-a" for the literal meaning in Pisan Italian.
