[Opinions] Re: Finish my sibset!
I like Helene pronounced hel-ENNE (but I don't really like how it looks with two n's).
And I like the sound of Helaine but not sure if I like the spelling/look.
Helina or Heline might be good too.
I also like Helena.

I always thought of Helene with the Greek pronunciation like Hel-ee-nee. An early interest in Greek mythology dies hard! I want to like Helena, but it's hard to imagine using it when there are two major pronunciations that people seem to use equally.
