It's rather punchy, with the syllables ONE-two ONE-two, if that makes sense. I think Helena Charlotte would flow much better, that extra small syllable doing some necessary work.***Please rate my personal name lists:www.behindthename.com/pnl/69381

Actually, one of the reasons I really like Helen Charlotte is because it isn’t Helena Charlotte.

Oh I'm so glad. Yes, Helena Charlotte is lovely, for sure; but to me that version is the "safe and boring" choice.Helen Charlotte does have some clunk, but that makes it feel real. It's warm and alive.

Agreed! Helena Charlotte is way safer and more expected than doughy Helen Charlotte.
