  I have a Russian friend named Irina, and an old co-worker, and they both pronounced it eye-reena.

  At first glance, "eye-reena".  But maybe that's because DH's grandmother is Irene, so I'm conditioned to that pronunciation. 

  I can definitely see the second choice or "ear-eena" and would easily adapt if I met someone with this name.
