My other half is Estonian and, when we were having the baby name talk, I mentioned about having a name that had both English and Estonian forms. He immediately picked Leena to which I replied with Ellen.We've decided to name our first daughter Ellen 'Leena' Kelsey.

Leena is one of the prettiest, most versatile names out there. The only slight disadvantage is the pronunciation confusion. Personally, I like both Lay-nah and Lee-nah as pronunciations. NOT Lehn-ah.A name that works for any age.
My friend is Nathalie Maria-Sarah Elina Veera Leena, she's is Finnish living in the down under where we only have one middle name. She decided she loved Leena the best and was known as Nathalie Leena. Leena was her grandma's name and she loves it so much.
