Re: Milena
in reply to a message by overtheclouds
I pronounce it with "LAY" in the middle and that's the only way I've heard it pronounced. I think it's a nice name, though I've never been drawn to it. That may be because it's very red to me, which I don't always find appealing in a name. Color impressions from names are hit and miss with me, though. Milena is pretty straight forward and the sounds are familiar enough that it wouldn't seem at all strange to me outside its native ethnicities.
