Love it. I like it much more than Helena. Helen is my mom's name. Helen or Helena were three of her grandmothers'/step-grandmothers' names, so she thinks of it as more or less an old-lady name. She says that as a kid, she never felt like she "owned" it. She thinks it's fine now.

I'd use it as a middle name. My favorite combo is Sylvia Helen.
