edit: I did a little bit of research, and one of the stories in From a Certain Point of View ("The Trigger") features Aphra. If anyone has the audiobook I guess that could be considered relatively authoritative in terms of how to pronounce it.

You might think that, but you might be shocked at some of the mispronunciations I have heard in star wars audio books.

Or it could be both. In ep. IV we have the pronunciation of Leia as Lee-ah and lay-ah. And don't even get started on Millennium Falcon vs. Millennium Fulcon.

The list goes on...

That's just two different ways to pronounce the word falcon in English. I've commonly heard both in non-Star Wars contexts. Names are a bit of a different matter...
