[Opinions] Re: Helen or Hellen
in reply to a message by Helen Mary
Definitely Helen. Hellen has the word "hell" in it and, even though Helen has the same sound, for some reason the double L makes it worse.
Also Helen is by far the more common spelling and I think spelling it with 2 Ls is just going to cause confusion.
Also I would never name a boy Hellen, because Helen is so common on girls.

Yeah... W/ the Hell thing, 1 l is better than 2 and while I dislike the name and wouldn't use it anyway, it's even worse on a boy... esp. since regardless of spelling, most people associate the name w/ girls... I've met girl Hellens, but never a boy Hellen.
