HelpRe: Pronounciation is key!

I agree. I think Lena Viola does sound better with the new prn.
Her-moy-nee is pretty bad, but I do like the other (original, I think) prn.
That happened to me with Ismene when I first saw it. I was studying Antigone back in high school, and I thought the names were Is-mean and anti-gone like the English words. Now that I know they're Is-me-ne and Ant-ih-guh-nee I think are lovely. I probably wouldn't use them, but you get my point. Oh, and Persephone. Same problem there.
