Comments for HÉLÈNE:
Can also be pronounced "ee-len" ee as in Bee or "e-len" Helen without the H.-- Anonymous User 5/7/2006
Some English use this name instead of Helen (Give the name a little personality, I personally think) but they pronounce it with a combination of Helen and Helene - "Hel-leen" instead of "Hel-en" or "ay-leen".-- Anonymous User 3/15/2007
In the film and book "Silk," by Alessandro Barrico, Helene is the wife of the main character, Herve. In the film she's played by Keira Knightley.-- Martha Gold 11/4/2008
I adore this name! I'm using it as the name for a main character in a story I'm writing (an English, Goth girl with French heritage) and I think it suits her well. Helene is a beautiful name, so much more so than Helen! I pronounce it "hay-LEHN" or "heh-LEHN", because I have known people with this name who pronounced it that way.-- Sophannagh 4/10/2009
There's a French opera called "La Belle Hélène".-- Ailis 11/20/2009
I am fond of this name. In fact I like it better than Helena (which I do love). Helene makes me think of a beautiful woman.-- Alora 1/25/2010
This French form of Helen/Ellen is damn sexy and slightly exotic. On paper, at least. My only concern: if Anglophone communities can faithfully reproduce it or not since it contains two accented characters in printed legal documents and such. Sure, this makes the name a bit unusual, but it seems to take a bit of work...-- arxsyn 5/9/2012
