How do you pronounce it?

Nátan

In Russian, names like На́тан rarely have common diminutive or 'nickname' forms, unlike 'Nathaniel' becoming 'Nate' in English.
When addressing a На́тан in a formal setting, Russians would use the name alongside a patronymic, such as На́тан Абра́мович, to show respect.
While many Biblical names have established Russian forms, such as 'John' becoming Иван, the name На́тан is almost always used as a direct phonetic transliteration of the foreign name.
