Re: Halina
in reply to a message by A
It’s pretty nice. Don’t hear it in America very much and I only know of older people in the Czech Republic who have that name (it was most popular in the 50s and 60s). Maybe it’s not as popular anymore because it sounds too much like halena in Czech which is a blouse.

It was popular in Poland around the same time period too. I like it, but don't love due to it kind of sounding somewhat dated, but I like it better than Helena.

It was my grandmother's sister's name. It's very pretty.
