Elena
What do you think of Elena for a girl?The thing is, I only like it pronounced ee-LAY-na or maybe eh-LAY-na.I dislike ELL-leh-na. ELL-lay-na is alright.How would YOU pronounce it?Do you think she'd always have to explain it's ee-LAY-na, NOT ELL-leh-na?I feel that ELL-leh-na is the usual pronunciation. I've met several, their parents were all from Poland or Russia. But it's really not my favorite pronunciation, also because it leads to Ellie which I don't like much. Do you think I could get away with the ee-LAY-na pronunciation? or eh-LAY-na? (I love that, too).Oh and I don't want an alternate spelling. Elaina isn't bad but I find Elena prettier. Do you know anyone with it? How do they pronounce it?
