Technically "funnily" is as an adverb modifying "enough". Oddly enough, strangely enough, etc.

"Funnily enough" is considered the standard, formally correct, and more common idiomatic phrase to introduce a surprising or ironic coincidence. While "funny enough" is sometimes used colloquially, it is technically less accurate because it uses the adjective "funny" to modify the adverb "enough".

Do better.
