Ilona is missing from other language variants.
The standard Polish form of this name is Helena, however Helen also is used occasionally. Last year (2020) 4 baby girls were given this name, and none got it as a middle name. There also were 242 women with this name in the whole Polish population, and exactly as many had it as their middle name.
A Polish Helen could celebrate her name day on one of the days when it's Helena's name day, or possibly Elena's, Eleonora's etc. And use the same nicknames as Helena.

When I was at school, we had 4 Matthews, 4 Lauras and 4 Helens. I would say it was fairly popular in England, at least in the late '70s, early '80s
