Jelena

A little cheap in my opinion.

I love this name, it's beautifully feminine yet mature and youthful, suits all ages and easy to pronounce. Pronounced Jeh-lenah or Je-lenah.

I think this is a pretty name.

My name is Jelena (yeh-leh-nah), and I strongly dislike it. I live in the U.S., and people always say it wrong. For example, on the first day of every new school year when teachers call roll, they say 'Jeh-leeh-nah', and it takes me at least 20 seconds for me to explain the pronunciation to them. It is a lovely name, but if you name your daughter this, beware of mispronunciations.
