The pinyin is Xùn Ān. Say it slowly, then at normal speed. If a tone feels difficult, practice the syllable alone before putting the full name together. A Chinese speaker will usually understand an imperfect tone in context, but the closer you get, the more natural the name feels.
How to introduce it
“My Chinese name is 逊安. 逊 — humble, modest; yield; 安 — peace, safety.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李逊安 (Lǐ Xùn Ān), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
