I pronounce Shallan basically started with the word “shall” and ending with the sound of the name “Anne.”

Do you place the emphasis on the first or second syllable?  shall-ANNE or SHALL-anne?

First syllable, SHALL-anne.

I pronounced "Kaladin" like "Saladin" (DEEN instead of DIN) until the passage in WoR where Rock's(?) pronunciation distinction is mentioned.

The ALethi language has a lot of vowels. Look at a word like "adoda". It is unlikely that stress changes the vowels a lot in such a language.
