Sounds like a female albino.

This was my first thought as well. It is a pity because I think I would otherwise like the name.

Looks like it more so than sounds, I think - al-bee-na vs. al-bye-no. That did cross my mind, unfortunately. Thank you for your feedback!

Albino can also be pronounced 'al-bee-no', though (like in the UK). I'll admit, that was my first thought when I saw the name. It looks pretty, but is probably only usable where 'albino' is pronounced with a '-bye-' sound.

I never knew it was pronounced that way in the UK! That definitely takes a bit more of the appeal off, since it could be a problem for a person who wants to travel.
I still like it, but it might be going into the "names I like but not for a real person" pile.
