Thanks, Arwen Evenstar

I'm no expert on the subject of pronunciation, but for what it's worth I always pronounce Fëanor fay-a-nor. I hope that is correct, seeing as he's my favorite character

I though Feanor was probably pronounced fay-a-nor, but I needed a second opinion. Thanks, Carnimírië!

I know you have to pronounce both Ns in Yavanna, but how? Is the second a long?

Instead of ya-VA-na, one would hold the 'n' sound a bit longer, like ya-VAHN-na. I hope that helps.
