American actress Illeana (with two "l"s) Douglas bears this name. I remember her most vividly as the kooky character in "Stir of Echoes" that hypnotizes Kevin Bacon, opening him up to all manner of extra sensory spookiness.

Pronounced "EE-lay-AW-naw", I think that this name is gorgeous. The Romanian operatic soprano Ileana Cotrubas bears this name.
