hi!!my grandmother's maiden name is Etienne - she was born in the south of France - the French language typically stresses the last syllable of its words, so your original is correct for France.... with a long A sound, not short e w/ t at the beginning.....actually it almost comes across as ay-T_YENso that the second and third syllables slide together.hope this helps...very common last name in France
