I have a friend who has a niece named Ileana (though I do not remember if she spelled it this way). I've never met the kid, so I have no idea what she is like, but I loved the name every since I first heard it. It's uncommon but not too out there and 100% feminine without being overly frilly. Plus I like how it's four syllables but only six letters.

I guess you could spell it Eliana, but I would pronounce that differently.
