Well, if Helena is that meaningful to you, then I'd say it's not the end of the world if Serena and Helena look similar. After all, their names would be pronounced differently and would be rarely listed together. I don't really think Serena and Helena are that close based on the way you're planning to pronounce them. Then again, I have a dd named AnNA and would likely name another dd MariNA and that doesn't bother me one bit.

Personally, if Helena had a lot of meaning to me, I'd let my dh have Serena if it made him happy. Unfortunately, my dh doesn't care for Corinna or Serena. :-(
