I'll try to explain it even though I'm not really familiar with phonetics. It sounds as if it's a german surname. The h is pronounced like the "h" in hot.

ha?n?m?n, some thing like that: HIGH-nuh-muhn. Recall Heineken beer. Just focus on anglicizaton aspects: you learn more by anglicizing, since dictionaries are not of help and since you have to use internalized English phonology.
