I notice some people are mixing Lenny and Leni up. Two totally different pronunciations - Leni rhymes with rainy. The German film maker, Leni Riefenstahl, may have been involved with making films used by Hitler but that's no reason to dislike a name - after all, look at Germany as a whole during those years - may as well go off all German names. Leni is my name, and I consider it really ignorant when people mispronounce it as Lenny - a name I truly hate - especially when they've been told how to pronounce it.
