How would it be pronounced proper?

I think "Tian" kinda rhymes with "peon" but faster and "Xia" is like saying "sha" but buzz it like you're making a Z sound.

Yeap

The best way to describe it (imo) is: Tea-yen Sh-yea

I've heard variations in pronunciations for the pinyin "x" though. I personally pronounce it without an emphasis on the h (s-yea), which I believe is fairly typical for Malaysian Mandarin speakers.

Old buddy of mine with that name pronounced it Tea N, not sure the last name.

The last name is probably similar to "cha" or maybe "chia"

I know "Xin" is pronounced like "chin"
