HelpRe: How do YOU pronounce Helena
in reply to a message by queenv
Well, just because you meet someone in a certain country doesn't mean that's where they were born or that it's where their parents are from. An American Helena with Portugese parents might be called e-le-na or something.

My Belgian-born mother-in-law, Anny, had to get used to being called AN-ee rather than the ON-ee she'd been called all of her life before immigrating to the US.
