Re: Ellen, Helen and Elleni
in reply to a message by )(
Ellen - currently ruined by DeGeneres. I find it a bit dated and very adult sounding. Hard to imagine a baby Ellen.
Helen - I dislike how this has "hell" in it, but it's not a bad name.
Elleni - Eleni? Elleni looks wrong to me. I like the way it looks but not the way it sounds because the Es are short ell-enn-nee from what I know. I'd like it as ay-lay-nee (can't explain, not really AY but more like a long EH).
I much prefer other forms of the name:
Ellie
Ella
Eleanor, Elinor
Elenia
Lenya
Elina
Helena

Oh I used to love Ellen as a kid and watch her show with my mom. I was so sad when I found out she was a bad employer.
Yes. Same here! I thought she was funny and nice.
