This is a great question. This is a German name but actually easy to say. Alexandra Rose Rieger's last name is pronounced "Ree-ger".

The meaning of the name is "regel" someone who is "refined" and of "noble birth". "Rieger" comes from "Rueger", someone who "reprehends" (ruegt). Like with other German last names, it also describes a profession, the profession of a "prosecutor". The last name "Rieger" is not as common a "Richter" (which means "judge" in German). The last name "Rieger" is most common is Southern Germany, mainly in Suebia (Schwaben) but also in Upper Bavaria (Oberbayern).
